"The End of Faith: Religion,Terror and the Future of Reason"

[Lost-in-FL]

Anyone here read the book? I just got it tonight ay B&N. I am so bad. I have 3 books that I just started

reading and keep buying more. I just started reading this one and seems good. No sugar coating, straight

to the point book.

2. Great minds and all of that.

Our B&N just opened here (first one in Fairbanks) so of course, I had to go overboard. In addition to The End of Faith, I bought 5 Harlan Coben paperbacks and a JD Robb (my reading vice).

3. Yes

My perspective in reading the book is that of a liberal Evangelical Christian. The book is sobering and well written. Some major holes in my opinion though, not the least of which is the author's failure to give appropriate weight to Western (see American) exploitation of the third world (see Muslim) when addressing Muslim attitudes towards "the infidels".

Worth reading, I read it in one sitting (cross country flight).
