为什么值得读
- 探讨如何吸纳宗教中对非信徒有益的元素
- 以发散思维探讨精神空虚与聚会需求
- 文字生动流畅且富有思想实验趣味
如果宗教既非全盘皆真,亦非全为荒谬呢?信徒与非信徒之间旷日持久且往往枯燥乏味的争论,终于在 Alain de Botton 这部发人深省的著作中迎来了推进。该书大胆提出,宗教对超自然现象的主张完全是虚假的,但它依然能为世俗世界提供极为重要的教益。Religion for Atheists 建议,不可知论者和无神论者与其嘲弄宗教,不如向其借用灵感——因为世界各大宗教中蕴含着大量关于我们如何生活及组织社会的良策。融合了深切的敬意

阿兰·德波顿在《给无神论者的宗教:不信者的宗教利用指南》(Religion for Atheists: A non-believer's guide to the uses of religion)中,更泛化地探讨了如何吸纳宗教里的好东西。这是个很有意思的思想实验,德波顿的文笔也很引人入胜。冲着他的发散思维就很值得一读,哪怕仅仅作为……的一个起点。
Alain de Botton writes more generally about taking the goods bits from religion in 'Religion for Atheists: A non-believer's guide to the uses of religion'. It's an interesting thought experiment, and de Botton writes engagingly. Well worth a read for his lateral thinking and, if nothing else, a starting…
你看过阿兰·德波顿的《给无神论者的宗教》(Religion for Atheists)吗?不一定非得是无神论者才能读得津津有味,不过它对你提到的那种虚无感确实有一种挺有意思的视角。有些地方甚至还为不信教的人办起了“教堂”或聚会……
Have you read Religion for Atheists by Alain de Botton? You don’t have to be an atheist to enjoy it but it does have an interesting view on the void that you mentioned. In some places there are even “church”/gatherings for non-religious…

对于像我这样的无神论者来说,依然能从宗教中学到很多东西。阿兰·德波顿的《给无神论者的宗教》(Religion for Atheists)让我受益匪浅 https://www.librarything.com/work/11370617/book/89008159
And for atheists like me, you can still learn a lot from religions. I got a lot out of Alain de Botton's "Religion for Atheists" https://www.librarything.com/work/11370617/book/89008159
阿兰·德波顿有本书叫《给无神论者的宗教》(Religion for Atheists)。他的核心观点是,宗教历经了成百上千年的文化演化,就算从字面上讲并非真理,其中大概率也包含了对我们有益的仪式和规则。……
Alain de Botton has a book called "Religion for Atheists". His central point is that religions have gone through hundreds or thousands of years of cultural evolution and likely contain rituals and rules that benefit us even if the religion literally isn't true.…
这和阿兰·德波顿在 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_for_Atheists 里提出的论点非常接近。
This is very close to the argument Alain de Botton makes in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religion_for_Atheists.
