Overview

The Bible: Is it a misleading deception? After a lifetime of affiliations with Baptist and Catholic churches Eugene F. Boerder came to a startling discovery, in 2009, that religion was dominating and frustrating his entire life. Taking the Bible Apart Word for Word is the compelling story of his journey to embracing atheism, and discovering a more beautiful world, and a more compassionate humanity in that decision. In examining both his life and the text of the Bible, Eugene shares with the reader his life-changing revelations about the ways in which the Bible, modern religion, and churches rob believers of joy and make them less caring toward their fellow man. In looking for the promise of a possibly nonexistent heaven, people miss what is right in front of them, today, on the most beautiful planet in the known universe. Overly concerned with following rules set out by the Bible or by their church, they lose sight of simple kindness, honesty, and truth. As an advocate for atheism, Eugene is urging a return to humanism: trust, respect, empathy, and kindness for all. Eye-opening and inspiring, Taking the Bible Apart Word for Word may be exactly what you need to open your mind to a better life.
