There are many good points in this book.And, on the other hand, there is a huge amount of bullshit!This book, in my opinion, is full of meaningless ideas and false accusations. Sam Harris apparently doesn't mean understand Islam or even religion for that matter. I felt that he read the Koran just to...
The narrative suffers from bias. There are much stronger compelling ways of showing the follies of faith instead of reason based on science then was presented in this book. Robert Wright's book, "The Evolution of God" covers the same kind of material that's in the first half of Harris' book, but he ...
While covering much the same ground as Christopher Hitchens in God Is Not Great, Harris does so with a voice less harsh, one sounding less like a diatribe. He scope is wider than Hitchens allowing him to make points that Hitchens doesn’t as well, e.g. that the tolerant religious are so at the expens...
Fiery, aggressive, politically incorrect, and often downright offensive, "The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason" is Sam Harris' nuclear-strength lambaste against the forces of faith and organized religion, which he claims have no place in a non-Apocalyptic future. Despite a wr...
Finally, the a-theist (hyphen deliberate) crowd is responding to all the religious claptrap with a vengeance. I've read Dawkins, Dennett and now Harris (I think this book should also be read with Letter to a Christian Nation which was his response to all the hate mail he received.) Harris makes a ve...
The original purpose of the book,(as nearly as I can tell), was to show how all religions require belief in things that are basically insane, without providing one shred of evidence for these beliefs. He discusses various faiths: Christian, Jewish, Muslim, and shows how all of their scriptures enco...
I know some (Christians) who have enjoyed reading this book because it articulates a scathing criticism of the Islamic faith. The book also criticizes Christianity, but in milder tones that can be glossed over in most minds of Christians. The author criticizes moderate and liberal Christians for pr...
Wow. Brilliant inquiry into the nature of religion, and the cultures which nurture it and resolutely refuse to allow any sort of rigorous inquiry into faith-based motives. Condemns the big three (Judaism, Christianity, Islam) with the same brush of cold, deadly reason. Harris doesn't see any way the...
