It's very shiny. Other than that, it's still sitting on my couch where it was last week because I made the mistake of buying Shermer and Harris' books at the same time.

It impresses me the way any of his books do or those written by people like him. He wants to talk to hear himself talking. Can he be stupid enough to think Christians would read it and believe it? Does he think if they did, they cant refute most of what he says because he doesnt even have a true concept of God? The man basically generalizes all Christians as being of "blind faith" which isnt true, uneducated in science and social studies... He isnt any more enlightening to a believer than Lewis is to a non believer.

I haven't read this one but Dawkins is brilliant.

It is a longwinded exercise in generating logical fallacies ranging from "hasty generalization" to "correlation implies causation." If you enjoy reading shrill invective, this book is for you.
The cover is very cool though.

Haven't read it, don't intend to. I read some of the reviews on Amazon.com.....everyone is entitled to their opinion...but this person obviously hates God.
