i started with that yesterday. it was still quite sweet when i got bored with it somewhere on the second page. i'm guessing it decends into a theological/cultural bunfight yes? i may pass on that. i'm not big on arguing about religion on the internet.
having said that, i finished the god delusion this morning. i enjoyed it overall. but then i am an atheist/humanist/rationalist anyway so it was... ummm...the opposite of preaching to the converted. what would that be? questioning the skeptic? i enjoyed his boldness and unapologetic stance in defence of science, but i think he's ultimately not likeable enough as writer, speaker or debater (is that a word?) to reach out to a wider majority. shame really.
watched heart of gold on friday night to get warmed up for reading shaky.
