开始以为是通识的书籍,这类书籍是我最爱的一种,属于BASE知识,然后自己可以按照自己的意愿再去看更多的书,就是通过书找书。
但是看了3章都是在讲宗教,然后我看了英文题目,OUTGROWING GOD。我不太清楚编辑是不是自己都不好把握怎么翻译,但我觉得是超越上帝吗?
后来又看了些英文的介绍,大概就是这个意思吧。就好奇编辑在定题目的时候是怎么想的。
Both lionised and demonised for his strident views, he is once again stepping into the fray, bringing his lifelong passions for evolution and secularism together in his 15th book, Outgrowing God: A beginner’s guide.
You’ve written another book about God.
Yes, Outgrowing God, which is for young people. Teenagers, let’s say – and young people up to about the age of 99 as well.
It covers a lot of familiar Dawkins territory, not just God but also evolution. Why did you feel that people need more on these topics?
I want to encourage people to think for themselves. I’ve always felt rather passionate about breaking the cycle as each generation passes on its superstitions to the next. If you ask people why they believe in the particular religion that they do, it’s almost always because that’s how they were brought up.
I’ve long wanted to try to break that cycle while being keen not to indoctrinate, because that’s of course what we criticise …
希望有比较专业的解答。谢谢。

我已经看完了,在最后一章作者自己解释了题目就是超越上帝的意思。封题了。谢谢。读后感就很棒,让我释怀了很多困扰我的N多年的意识形态问题。但还是有些问题悬而未决,比如第一个基因又是怎么产生的呢?难道我要去看物种起源?实际上,物种起源不是也有些观念要被推翻了???
