Religion is For Fools! (2013)

Australian Bill Medley, a professional comedian and religious sceptic, sets out on an investigation of the world's five major religions: Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam and Judaism. He attempts to discover what they claim, and how their claims can be assessed. What, if anything, can a layman learn about a 'God' or an 'afterlife'? What can logic and tangible evidence reveal? While he once believed that 'religion is for fools,' Bill Medley explains why he had a change of heart.

As a religious sceptic, Bill Medley investigates the five major world religions: Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Islam and Judaism, from a layman's perspective. He attempts to see what can be known, if anything, about a 'God' or an 'afterlife' from logic and tangible evidence.

Originally written as a letter to his sister-in-law, in Religion is For Fools! he shares his findings with her and tries to address her objections.

Bill Medley worked as a professional entertainer for fifteen years. His stand-up comedy routines sometimes included satires on religion. Here he gives it a more serious examination.

'Absolutely brilliant! . . . If all those who argue over religion had a copy of this book it would revolutionise the relationship between me and my bank manager.' Bill Medley

'This book has dramatically changed my whole attitude towards typing.' Diana Medley (wife)
