Dawkins afirma la irracionalidad de la creencia en Dios y el penoso daño que la religión ha infligido a la sociedad, desde las Cruzadas hasta el 11-S. Con rigor e ingenio examina a Dios en todas sus formas, desde el tirano obsesionado por el sexo del Antiguo Testamento, hasta el benigno relojero celestial favorecido por algunos pensadores de la Ilustración. Disecciona los principales argumentos de la religión y demuestra la suprema improbabilidad de un ser supremo. Muestra cómo la religión alienta las guerras, fomenta el fanatismo y el abuso infantil, apuntalando sus ideas con evidencias históricas y contemporáneas.
