This duck is angry! Faced with the constant banter from atheist intellectuals he has had enough. As a member of what he just refers to as “a cult”, he is fed up with the half-baked and frankly silly arguments that certain scientists, philosophers, and public intellectuals flaunt as rational proofs against any belief based on spirituality and religious convictions.

It is refreshing to follow his rant in a cultural context in which the age-old quarrel between believers and non-believers still holds a central stage.

Are we better off by dismissing any possibility of there being supernatural powers that at least partly determines our human experience? Should we rejoice in the death of God? This duck will show you how the most often quoted critiques of religious beliefs—Marx, Nietzsche, David Chalmers, etc.—might not have been so sure about these questions as you might imagine.

Kaisa and Christoffer Leka’s graphic essay takes you headfirst into a reflection about some of our most pivotal existential questions, this is a highly recommended read!
