	Amazon.com: Religion Without God: Books: Ray Billington (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Billington's book, which is very easy to comprehend, will interest three types of readers--those who are in agreement with his atheism; those who are undecided as to whether or not they believe there is a God; and those who believe in the reality of God..
		Billington's thinking is an example of the "perennial philosophy" approach that attempts to isolate an experiential or doctrinal core supposedly found in all religions (monism), which then becomes the normative principle for religious evaluation.
		Billington's attempt to advocate religion without God, scripture, religious exemplars, objective morality, and even truth is a peculiar hybrid of anti-theistic zeal and mystical enthusiasm, but it fails to achieve anything close to a convincing argument.
