The Immoral Landscape (of the New Atheism): How Human Nature Poisons Everything and Why the Church Is Our Only Hope for Survival (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781515380863)

"Religion poisons everything." So say Christopher Hitchens and the entire cast of New Atheists. If you want to make the world a better place, the New Atheists would thus recommend getting rid of religion. But John Gravino disagrees. In The Immoral Landscape, John Gravino argues that the real problem with the world is not religion; it is human nature. And the problem with our human nature is located in our minds. The key to making the world a better place, therefore, depends on the healing of the human mind. But how exactly do we go about the important business of healing our minds? The world of science has been amazingly successful in so many areas, but the one glaring exception to the nearly flawless track record of the sciences is in the study of mental disorder. While science has been able to find cures for so many physical diseases, a cure for mental illness has proven elusive. John Gravino offers an explanation. Science is unable to cure the mind because the mind is a fundamentally different organism. The human mind is spiritual, not physical; and thus, it obeys the spiritual laws of the universe. If you want to make the world a better place, John Gravino argues that getting rid of religion-the true source of the spiritual laws of the universe-is the worst thing you can do. John Gravino presents his case, based on empirical evidence, that the only thing that can save the world is true religion because only true religion has the power to heal the human mind. And what is that true religion? It is true Christianity, of course You can follow John Gravino online at newwalden.org.
