"I found myself following my wife around the house reading passages of Bugliosi's book to her out loud. I wish I'd written this wonderfully funny deeply moving antidote to the false certainties -- both religious and irreligious -- that have divided our society into warring camps yammering at each other about things no one understands." -Frank Schaeffer New York Times bestselling author of Crazy for God: How I Grew Up as One of the Elect, Helped Found the Religious Right, and Lived to Take All (or Almost All) of It Back "Always eloquent, this is a fascinating read." - Publishers Weekly "Bugliosi's arguments, while familiar, are well-reasoned, clearly presented, and provide a good introductory survey of the theist-versus-atheist-versus-agnostic debate." -Booklist  , “I wish I’d written this deeply moving antidote to the false certainties-both religious and irreligious-that have divided our society into warring camps yammering at each other about things no one understands.â€� -Frank Schaeffer, New York Times bestselling author of Crazy for God, "I found myself following my wife around the house reading passages of Bugliosi's book to her out loud.

Synopsis
Vincent Bugliosi, whom many view as the nation's foremost prosecutor, has successfully taken on, in court or on the pages of his books, the most notorious murderers of the last half century--Charles Manson, O.J. Simpson, and Lee Harvey Oswald. Now, in the most controversial book of his celebrated career, he turns his incomparable prosecutorial eye on the greatest target of all: God. In making his case for agnosticism, Bugliosi has very arguably written the most powerful indictment ever of God, organized religion, theism, and atheism. Theists will be left reeling by the commanding nature of Bugliosi's extraordinary arguments against them. And, with his trademark incisive logic and devastating wit, he exposes the intellectualpoverty of atheism and skewers its leading popularizers--Christopher Hitchens, Sam Harris, and Richard Dawkins. Joining a 2,000-year-old conversation which no one has contributed anything significant to for years, Bugliosi, in addition to destroying the all-important Christian argument of intelligent design, remarkably--yes, scarily--shakes the very foundations of Christianity by establishing that Jesus was not born of a virgin, and hence was not the son of God, that scripture in reality supports the notion of no free will, and that the immortality of the soul was a pure invention of Platothat Judaism and Christianity were forced to embrace because without it there is no life after death. Destined to be an all-time classic, Bugliosi's Divinity of Doubt sets a new course amid the explosion of bestselling books on atheism and theism--the middle path of agnosticism. In recognizing the limits of what we know, Bugliosi demonstrates that agnosticism is he most intelligent and responsible position to take on the eternal question of God's existence., From the New York Times bestselling author of Helter Skelter comes a provocative book on agnosticism, Vincent Bugliosi, whom many view as the nation's foremost prosecutor, has successfully taken on, in court or on the pages of his books, the most notorious murderers of the last half century--Charles Manson, O.J.

    Not for the devout...

    A very logical, compelling argument for agnosticism --- but only for those people who are open to the argument. I was especially intrigued by Mr. Bugliosi's rationale about what deity you should pray to (assuming you want to pray, of course). Of course, agnostics are not atheists. Atheists are positive there is no God. This is, of course, the opposite of theists, who are positive there IS a God. Agnostics are those in between -- maybe there is and maybe there isn't. They just don't know. Prove it one way or the other and they will be happy to know too.

    Droll

    Bugliosi needed to stick with legal drama. His ego got the best of him
