Bindslev. 2007. Trade paperback. Good. No dust jacket as issued. inscription on half-title page, stain inside back cover. 121 p. . Den verdenskendte engelske filosof og nobelpristager Bertrand Russell leverer et knivskarpt og aktuelt opgør med kristendommen og dermed også med islam og andre teologiske systemer. ""Mørkemænds myter"" kalder han kristendommen og anerkender kun, at religionens bidrag til civilisationen er dens opfindelse af kalenderen. Religion bygger ifølge Bertrand Russell på rædslen for det ukendte og på ønsket om at have en slags storebror, der står side om side med én under alle vanskeligheder og i enhver strid. Religionens fundament er frygten for det gådefulde, frygten for at lide nederlag og frygten for døden. Bertrand Russells nådeløse opgør med kristen moral, universel retfærdighed og de kilder, hvorfra kristendom og islam udspringer, rammer lige ind i den verserende diskussion om tro og ateisme, intelligent design, moral og etik.
