Sam Harris delivers a startling analysis of the clash of faith & reason in the modern world, arguing that the threat of mass destruction is too great for us to continue pitting one God against another & that paying even moderate lip service to religion only serves to blind us to the perils of fundamentalism.

This was a hate read.

This book is nonsense, and I'm not sure how this helped launch a wider New Atheist "movement" of faux intellectuals rallying against religion (but I can guess, since it's a post-2001 book that included a lot of racist trash about Muslims with huge red flags in every other way for other forms of bigotry).

Sam Harris is a piece of shit, and he's only harmed other atheists. (Signed, a queer atheist who never had a place in atheist communities and left a lot of them because too many cishet white men were sucking up all the oxygen with their bigoted rhetoric, and people were happier for marginalised and vulnerable people to leave than to excise the disgusting human beings within them.)
