Silverman argues that religion is more than just wrong: it is malevolent and does notdeserve our respect. It is our duty to be outspoken and do what we can to bring religion down. Examining the mentality, methods and issues facing the firebrand atheist, Silverman presents an overwhelming argument for firebrand atheism and reveals:

- Allreligion is cafeteria religion and almost all agnostics are atheists.

- American society grants religion a privileged status, despite the intentions of the Founding Fathers.

- Christian politicians have adversely (and un-Constitutionally) affected our society with regard to science, health, women's rights, and gay rights.

- The notion of "atheist Jews" is a lie forced on us by religion.

- It is not "Islamophobia" to observe dangerous teachings and disproportionate violence in Islam.

- Atheists are slowly but surely winning the battle.

Fighting God is a provocative, unapologetic book that takes religion to task and will give inspiration to non-believers and serve as the ultimate answer to apologists.
