God and My Neighbour

"God and My Neighbour" by Robert Blatchford is a thought-provoking discussion that questions traditional religious views, diving into the author's personal journey as a self-described non-believer grappling with faith and morality. Blatchford uses a casual tone that starts with a walk down London's Strand, leading to intense reflections on being called an "infidel," a term he uses as a starting point to look closely at what he sees as the moral failings within organized religion. Instead of old religious rules, he pushes for a way of thinking that puts humanity, reason, and fairness first, calling for a new way of understanding ethics and belief that values proof and empathy. It’s a call to rethink faith, pushing readers to focus on real-world kindness and justice.
