Okay, everybody, very special guest here today about a topic near and dear to my heart and to all of you, about atheism. Atheism, I think, is dying in the West. We'll talk about that.
Joining us now is a friend of mine, Barack Lurie. Barack, great to see you. Thanks for having me. Not to be confused with Barack Obama. I'm sure you get that a lot. All the time.
And I do not like it.
What is Barak Lurie's Atheism Kills series about?
I'm sure you don't. No, you're much wiser, and you believe in God. I do. I don't know if Barack Obama does or not. But okay, so you're the author of a very interesting and important series of books. Tell us about it.
Yeah, it's called the Atheism Kills series. There are three volumes. The first one came out in 2017 called the Atheism Kills. The next one was in 2019, 2020, Atheism Destroys. And the last one that is about to be wrapped up, Atheism Steals. And what I do there is I try to show the dangers and the consequences of a world without God. And it's not very pretty. It's going to be a terrifying world if we were to actually adopt atheism as a governing structure. And it's not hypothetical for me to say that. We have ample examples of that, both in the world of fascism and in communism. And they were so overwhelming. The evidence was so overwhelming that this is what happens when you operate a government without God.
It's a little bit like that old egg commercial. I don't know if you remember it, Charlie, but you put these eggs in a skillet and this is your brain, this is your brain on drugs. Well, This Is Your World on Atheism is not a pretty one. I show in these books that atheism kills on an epic level, beyond belief. Hundreds of millions of people have died in the 20th century and are continuing to do so. that has been evidenced by Hitler's reign in fascism, generally speaking. Hitler was not a Christian, by the way. And I do want to dive into that later. It's one that I get quite often. Oh, it's an easy response. Communism, of course, was by definition atheist. You had to be an atheist in order to actually adopt communism. It was the engine of communism.
Alexander Solzhenitsyn, the great Soviet dissident, said, that atheism was the central pivot of communism. It could not exist without atheism. Naturally, they wanted to get rid of religion altogether because religion was the ultimate threat to the government. They wanted you to completely be subservient to the government systems, and therefore what you have to do is just abandon religion altogether. And that's what they largely successfully did in the Soviet Union and to some extent in China. but these are really horrific regimes, and we need to understand that.
