Publisher's summary
Can an atheist also be spiritual? This book's title is loved by Neale Donald Walsch, author of Conversations with God.
Provocative and daring, Spiritual Atheist challenges the views of many atheists and people of religions alike. The book suggests one possible truth that atheism and religion might just agree. The audacity of the book’s aim—finding a common ground rooted in spirituality—is only exceeded by its potential controversy.
The book asks and answers these difficult questions:
1. What is eternal life?
2. Who are we? Where did we come from?
3. Where did science and religion fail?
4. Where are science and religion helpful?
5. Where do science and religion meet?
6. What of God? What of life? What of humans?
8. Can atheists be spiritual?
Peter Ahkia’s uncompromising authenticity to point out what is so will at least prompt you to challenge the views and come up with your own truth.
"I love the title. The juxtaposition of those two words is great. “Spiritual Atheist” is terrific…As soon as I see that on the bookshelf, I gotta at least pick it up and turn it over to see, you know, what’s on the back cover." (Neale Donald Walsch, author of Conversations with God, personal communication, December 11, 2023). Not meant as an endorsement of the book.
Part of Peter Ahkia's Spiritual series. Copyright 2023.

The ancient Toltecs believed that life, as we perceive it, is a dream. We each live in our own personal dream, and these come together to form the dream of the planet, or the world in which we live. Problems arise when our perception of the dream becomes clouded with negativity, drama, and judgment (of ourselves and others), because it's in these moments of suffering that we have forgotten that we are the architects of our own reality and we have the power to change our dream if we choose.

Why is The Book of Enoch so important to anyone interested in Biblical history? The answer is simple: It is directly quoted in the New Testament by Jude (vv.14-15). Themes of the book referenced in 2 Peter 2:1. Jesus also used content from The Book of Enoch in many of his sermons in Matthew and Luke. In this text, you will hear the word of God through this amazing document. We will take this amazing journey together and learn why this text is not an official book of the Bible.

Story
The book of Enoch was thought to be lost for over 2,000 years until, in 1773, a traveller brought three copies back from Ethiopia. Whether or not this ancient book was actually authored by Enoch, the father of Methuselah and great-grandfather of Noah, is an ongoing debate among historians and theologians. But all recognise the book of Enoch as one of the most important apocalyptic works outside of the Bible.

Very clear and honest
I can only give my opinion of this and I think it's a very honest representation of Atheist views while maintaining a respect for spiritual belief and the benefits of having a spiritual connection in life. I think it's very well narrated and good information and maintains a balanced view across beliefs.

May help you think
I am a Christian, but I picked this book up out of curiosity. I have to say that the arguments, even though I disagree with them, are well thought out. The attempts to make a case for a spiritual atheist are not too casual. The book doesn’t dismiss faith as though those who believe couldn’t possibly have thought it through like many do. I think that’s a plus. It is a book that may help you clarify your thoughts regardless of the side of the argument where you fall.
