First, Christopher Hitchens has written a new book about god (lower case intentional), God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything.
From the reviews, it appears that we have another fact-based, well-researched, logical thesis refuting god, unicorns, leprechauns, a flat earth, and dragons. Again, according to Salon, we are "Watching a man of his intellect and learning go to work on the indefensible crassness of religious fundamentalism...is rather like watching a vainglorious father running rings around his young son in a game of soccer."
Ha! Funny stuff, right?! Well, it saddens me to believe that we still have to defend logic over faith. We still have world and national and business and social leaders believing this fluff makes some sort of sense.
I mean, whatever floats your boat, but don't push dandelion worship on me.
Anyway, Chris wrote a new book and 1) I fully support it, but 2) I don't see a reason to buy or read it. I get it, I know it, it won't change my opinion.
