Wow and wow! OK, i know little else about Harris
and maybe, as a True Believer, i would not like
some of his other work as well as i like this - but
this was terrific and thought-provoking and bears a
second listen.

Most evangelicals i know hate atheism as much for
their belief that it advocates moral relativism as
for its disrespect of God. He turned that on its ear.

Thanks for this.
