Thousands of people have written to tell me that I am wrong not to believe in God. The most hostile of these communications have come from Christians. This is ironic as Christians generally imagine that no faith imparts the virtues of love & forgiveness more effectively than their own. The truth is that many who claim to be transformed by Christs love are deeply even murderously intolerant of criticism. While we may want to ascribe this to human nature it is clear that such hatred draws considerable support from the Bible. How do I know this? The most disturbed of my correspondents always cite chapter & verse. So begins Letter to a Christian Nation" Sam Harris hard-hitting rebuttal of religious fundamentalism & blind belief. With deceptively simple arguments he demolishes the myths on which Christianity was built challenges believers to open their eyes to the contradictions of their faith & warns us of the dangers of Americas ever increasing unification of Church & State." ...
