Richard Dawkins, whom Discover magazine recently called "Darwin's Rottweiler" for his fierce and effective defense of evolution, now turns his considerable intellect on religion, denouncing its faulty logic and the suffering it causes.

Richard Dawkins, whom Discover magazine recently called "Darwin's Rottweiler" for his fierce and effective defense of evolution, now turns his considerable intellect on religion, denouncing its faulty logic and the suffering it causes. He eviscerates the major arguments for religion and demonstrates the supreme improbability of a supreme being. He shows how religion fuels war, foments bigotry, and abuses children, buttressing his points with historical and contemporary evidence. In so doing, he makes a compelling case that belief in God is not just irrational, but potentially deadly.

The ever growing Island
Living, as I do, in a very religious country I have found this book to be an inspirational island of sense and reason. While some of Dawkin's points are inadequately backed up (in order to maintain an enjoyable non-bogged down read I presume) to change the convictions of a lifelong believer, It remains an intelligently constructed, informative and entertaining argument.

Very profound
One of the most intellectually powerful book I've ever read can pick it up and just read a page or three at random, and you'll be stunned at how well reasoned his arguments are.

There is no such thing as an "atheist"
One would have to be all knowing in order to say that there is no God.
This book should be considered a poorly written dull comedy. It's content is twisted, one-sided and without rational thought.
Dick Dawkins is delusional in his approach.

Open Your Mind
Should be required reading for all religionists.
That's all I had to say about it, but Alibris won't let me publish my review unless it has at least 50 characters - so here ya go!
