Summary
About the author
About the narrator

Vincent Bugliosi turns his critical eye on both religious believers and the atheists who reflexively oppose them. Here he indicts both camps, and argues why agnosticism is the most responsible position to take with regard to such eternal questions as the existence of God. Bugliosi examines such developments as the decline of belief in evolution and the disturbing vengefulness of God as depicted in the Old Testament. He also questions that an all-powerful and all-knowing creator would have so badly miscalculated free will, leaving human beings to persecute and murder their fellow human beings. Vincent Bugliosi sets a new course - a middle path that urges us to recognize the limits of what we know, and what we cannot know about the ineffable mysteries of existence.

Religion

In his career at the Los Angeles County District Attorney's office, Vincent Bugliosi successfully prosecuted 105 of 106 felony jury trials, including every murder case. His most famous trial, the Charles Manson case, became the basis of his true-crime classic, Helter Skelter, the biggest selling true-crime book in publishing history. Two of Vincent's other true-crime books - And the Sea Will Tell and Outrage - also reached #1 on the New York Times hardcover bestseller list, as did his latest book, Reclaiming History: The Assassination of President John F. Kennedy. No other American true-crime writer has ever had more than one that book achieved this ranking. Vincent lives with his wife of many years in Los Angeles.
