The Necessity of Atheism presents an overview of religious scepticism in the 1930s, and a look at on-going debate and like scepticism even today. Despite obvious conflict of its central topic coupled with the thorough deconstruction of all major religious figures and practices through time, I see this work as mainly offering a range of viewpoints on religious beliefs, systems and practices and not necessarily seeking to dissuade the reader from religious thought in anyway...I think this work is only for the open-minded or the free-thinker and even an opportunity for thought by those only previously exposed to religion, but it should not be employed as a tool for conflict.Plain speaking is necessary in any discussion of religion, for if the freethinker attacks the religious dogmas with hesitation, the orthodox believer assumes that it is with regret that the freethinker would remove the crutch that supports the orthodox. And all religious beliefs are "crutches" hindering the free locomotive efforts of an advancing humanity. There are no problems related to human progress and happiness in this age which any theology can solve, and which the teachings of freethought cannot do better and without the aid of encumbrances.

"The Necessity of Atheism" is a treatise on atheism by the English poet Percy Bysshe Shelley, printed in 1811 by C. and W. Phillips in Worthing while Shelley was a student at University College, Oxford. A copy of the first version was sent as a short tract signed enigmatically to all heads of Oxford colleges at the University. At that time the content was so shocking to the authorities that he was "rusticated" (expelled from the University) for refusing to deny authorship, together with his friend and fellow student, Thomas Jefferson Hogg. A revised and expanded version was printed in 1813.Shelley's early profession of atheism in this tract not only led to his expulsion from Oxford but also branded him as a radical agitator and thinker, setting an early pattern of marginalisation and ostracism from the intellectual and political circles of his time. Though Shelley's poetry and prose output remained steady throughout his life, most publishers and journals declined to publish his work for fear of being arrested themselves for blasphemy or sedition.Shelley did not live to see success and influence in his time, although these reach down to the present day not only in literature, but in major movements in social and political thought.

This is a narrative about what is often referred to as, the natural evolution of atheism. This is not a mere shadow of doubt in God's existence or "walking with atheists" in order to convince the reader about the legitimacy of atheism. This would inappropriate and vulgar. My own life's experience is dotted with penalties, dangers and risks of exposing me as an atheist in primitive indigenous communities in the Andean Sierras of South America, when visiting the Shamans in the Amazon Rain Forest, and when I was living incognito within a fundamentalist Christian community in Peru. Those events are briefly described in my book, Prisoners of our Ideals. In a historical context, it is important to articulate the natural and historical evolution of atheism because, in current times, the intense commitments to different forms of monotheist religions have acquired such a strong and dangerous political connotation, especially between the fundamentalist Christianity and orthodox Islam. The widespread suspicion cast on atheists or disbelievers is becoming a real thread to free thought. For the politically motivated religious propagators, atheism is not a small and irrelevant group of free thinkers, but a growing social, intellectual and scientific force. They believe that atheism, science and free-thought would be corrosive to their religious dogma and they are worrying about it. I must admit that they are correct! Atheism is corrosive to religious dogma, whose God states that, "If you do not believe inme, you'll burn in Hell forever." Contemporary atheists have preserved the long tradition of scepticism, for men and women have been sceptical in God's existence. For instance, Epicurus (341-270 BCE) said "Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able but not willing? Then he is malevolent...Is he neither able nor willing, then why call him God?" You see, books on the historical evolution of atheism are regarded as "subversive disbelieve" and such arguments paradoxically could only be found among believers. This is because Christianity; since the time of the Emperor Flavius Titus (39-81 AD), has continuously been redesigning itself and theologians often formulated the most dangerous sceptical arguments in an effort to test the strength of their faith....All of this dramatises the believers' attitude towards this life and the delusional hope in the existence of life-after-death. Their fear of death is but illusionary and meaningless. In the words of the atheist who influenced Thomas Jefferson, the Greek philosopher Epicurus: " Death does not concern us, because as long as we exist, death is not here. And when it does come, we no longer exist...Why should I fear death, if I am [existing], then death is not, if death is, I am not. Why should I fear that [which] does not exist, when I do [exist]." He clearly did not believe in life-after death....The irony is that people in the US have forgotten, or are no longer taught, that their country was founded by secularists and atheists who were escaping from political oppression and religious persecution. Leaders of the American Revolution, Thomas Paine and Thomas Jefferson, were both secularist (deist) but not religious. In fact, the second President of the US, John Adams was an atheist; so were Abraham Lincoln, George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, James Buchanan and James Madison, among others. US President John Adams (1797-1801), stated that, "God is in essence nothing that we know off, and until this offal blasphemy is got rid off there never will be any liberal science in the world." ....This book is a scientific and historical narrative from the Big Bang formation of our universe, the Laws of Nature, Prehistoric societies, the Imperial Roman invention of Christianity, Islam's questionable beginning and origins to problems with religious morality. Enjoy the book, family recommended.
