His books are filled with fragmentary sketches of this ‘spiritual atheism’, resembling a great unfinished cathedral. This book systematises and completes Dawkins’ arguments and reveals their deep roots in Stoicism and Platonism.\u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                \u003cp\u003e\n                                        Expanding on Dawkins’ ideas, Steinhart shows how atheists can develop powerful ethical principles, compelling systems of symbols and images, and meaningful personal and social practices. \n                    \n                    \u003ci\u003eBelieving in Dawkins\u003c\/i\u003e\n                                         is a rigorous and potent entreaty for the use of science and reason to support spiritually rich and optimistic ways of thinking and living.\n                \n                \u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                \u003cp\u003e\n                                        \n                    \u003cbr\u003e\n                                    \n                \u003c\/p\u003e\n                                \n                \u003cbr\u003e\n                                \n                \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n                            \n            \u003cdiv class=\"aw-variant-hidden-subtitle-div\" id=\"aw-variant-subtitle-9783030430511\"\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe New Spiritual Atheism\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Libri","offers":[{"title":"Softcover - 9783030430511","offer_id":39419002945629,"sku":"9783030430511","price":29.95,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0940\/0622\/files\/fe81a398-15c8-4096-af1a-d352346da7fe.jpg?v=1775104131","url":"https:\/\/shop.autorenwelt.de\/products\/believing-in-dawkins-the-new-spiritual-atheism-von-eric-steinhart","provider":"Autorenwelt Shop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
