About this listen

What if notorious atheist Christopher Hitchens, bestselling author of God Is Not Great, had a Christian brother? He does. Meet Peter Hitchens--British journalist, author, and former atheist--as he tells his powerful story for the first time in The Rage Against God.

In The Rage Against God, Hitchens details his personal story of how he left the faith and dramatically returned. Like many of the Old Testament saints whose personal lives were intertwined with the life of their nation, so Peter's story is also the story of modern England and its spiritual decline. The path to a secular utopia, pursued by numerous modern tyrants, is truly paved with more violence than has been witnessed in any era in history.

Peter invites you to witness firsthand accounts of atheistic societies, specifically in Communist Russia, where he lived in Moscow during the collapse of the Soviet Union. Peter brings his work as an international journalist to bear as he shows that the twentieth century--the world's bloodiest--entailed nothing short of atheism's own version of the Crusades and the Inquisition.

The Rage Against God asks and answers the three failed arguments of atheism:

  • Are conflicts fought in the name of religion really just conflicts about religion?
  • Is it possible to determine what is right and what is wrong without God?
  • Are atheist states not actually atheist?

Join Hitchens as he provides hope for all believers whose friends or family members have left Christianity or who are enchanted by the arguments of the anti-religious intellects of our age.

A tour de force of word play

Enjoy the English language at its best with some deep insights into why atheists rebel against God

This is not written by an atheist (which you might guess if you only base your assumptions on the title), but a Christian who probes the depths of atheist self delusions

A Remarkable Combination of Narrative and Argument

This book is not a typical polemic against atheism. It is a combination of story and argument, and so frames the author's journey from atheism to Christianity in a way that is at times amusing, often disturbing, and at other times remarkably heartfelt, particularly for a Brit. Peter's accent may make it more difficult for some to undsrstand; I personally found it complementary to the emotional weight regarding his own personal experiences and the well-known schism between him and his more famous atheist brother. This book may not be for all, but it is one of the most enjoyable apologetic books I have read up to this point.
