Owning the Unknown A Science Fiction Writer Explores Atheism, Agnosticism, and the Idea of God by Robert Charles Wilson

The best part of the book is the two short SciFi stories.

It was a bit difficult to follow the idea behind a science fiction writer exploring the God because most of the narrative was based on the myths. Which led to obscure thoughts that came from the imagination.

However, this was a quick read which gives you the idea of a supreme power imagined in a science fiction. The fictions are good but unfortunately they create a breeding grounds for incorrect ideas, and try to simplify things to an absurd level.

When there is a dedicated line of thoughts for analysing the existence or non-existence of god with the options to accept or reject any hypothesis at different levels, the idea of God shouldn't come from fiction.

God needs to be individualised, and not commonized.

Peace
