We have recently seen that the relationship between people with different views of life has deteriorated. In general - regardless of religion – the dialogue in society has worsened. Social media is exploited for manipulation, and the internet abounds in conspiracy theories and hatred. Both religious and anti-religious people are involved in this. Sometimes the consequences are fatal, and human lives are lost, and many people suffer. Perhaps sensible reflection can help us. The author of this book believes just that. Critical thinking can protect us from being manipulated, get distorted thoughts, get a distorted perception of reality. Critical thinking can help us adjust our opinions – whether you are religious, anti-religious, or neither. But it requires knowledge of what critical thinking is, and not least, it requires training.In this book you will learn about basic principles of critical thinking. You will also learn about topics that occur in today's debate on religious beliefs. You are invited to apply the principles of critical thinking to questions related to life interpretation - especially the question of God's existence and science.
