Learn moreFr. Vincent Miceli breaks ground in this analysis of seventeen Enlightenment theologians and philosophers who contributed to the rise of atheism. He explores their efforts and successes in convincing mankind to deny the existence of God, and he demonstrates how atheism has succeeded by creating mythical gods to stand in the place of God. What Fr. Miceli shows is that each tenet of atheism doesn't deny the existence of a Higher Power; it simply replaces the true Power with a false power.
Fr. Miceli will help you spot those "practical atheists" of our day—those who, despite calling themselves Christians, water down Christianity and reduce God to a reflection of their own personal desires.
You'll also learn how the devil tempts us against the Faith and how this leads to infidelity and habitual denials of God. Fr. Miceli gives important examples how the influence of philosophers such as Camus has corrupted man's understanding of social justice.
The Gods of Atheism will help you understand how and why our society has fallen into such a state of religious indifference and corruption—and how to navigate, and even thrive in, this post-Christian culture with unwavering faith in the one true God.
Fr. Vincent P. Miceli, S. J. (1915-1991), earned his doctoral degree in contemporary philosophy from Fordham University while studying under Dietrich von Hildebrand. He taught at Loyola University, Pontifical Gregorian University, Pontifical University of St. Thomas, and Christendom, among other colleges. He is the author of several books, including The Antichrist, Ascent to Being, and The Roots of Violence, and he wrote extensively for journals and magazines, such as L'Osservatore Romano, Homiletic and Pastoral Review, and National Catholic Register. Fr. Miceli made innumerable appearances on national TV and radio programs to promote the Faith and cohosted the syndicated radio program Where Catholics Meet.
