Props for a Sam Harris link. Very enjoyable and, as always, educating. The last book of his I read was "The End of Faith". You'd think it was a downer, man, with a title like that but it actually offered some solace and touched on some of the issues he raises in that article. Much recommended to anyone with an interest in the subjects. I can't post links yet (ahem) but if you search youtube, you can find a related roundtable discussion of provenance not seen since the (cough, fictional, cough) days of Camelot. It includes Mr. Sam Harris along with the dearly departed Christopher Hitchens, the estimable Richard Dawkins, and professor Daniel Dennett. (Sorry, it won't let me post external links. This aggression will stand, and I'll abide, but it's not cool).
