Fewer than one in ten Americans accept evolution as a process that goes on without divine intervention. This book not only endorses [that] view, it also claims that every aspect of the human spirit—mind, thought, feeling, love, dreams, hope, admiration, decency, faith and in general everything that the religious person takes as evidence for the soul—came from that same natural process, without need of divine assistance. The human spirit is made of the sticky, pulpy stuff and, except to the extent that some echoes of its throbbing may continue in other sticky pulps, becomes silent when that stuff stops throbbing.
