Star Map: A Journey of Faith, Doubt, and Meaning is a touching and deeply personal philosophical memoir about a young man's wrestling match with fanatical faith and his frantic search for truth and meaning. Against the backdrop of pressing social issues of the 1960s such as the Vietnam War and the civil rights movement, Lewis Vaughn's journey transforms him from a young Christian fundamentalist to a disillusioned agnostic to an atheist seeker of meaning in a godless world.A single horrifying moment begins the breakdown of his faith, and the following examination of his faith's tenets eventually erodes it completely. But the struggle to survive the ravages of doubt is only half the tale. After the collapse of his religious beliefs and the sense of purpose it imparted, he feverishly sets out to discover whether there could be any meaning in life at all without religion. Along the way he stumbles on the strongest empirical argument against the reliability of faith as a source of knowledge, and sees that life does indeed have meaning without religion. In the end, he never regains the faith he lost, but finds something better.
