This book should be removed from the public sphere as the bigotry it is.Its one long tract citing a retarded view of religion,its historicity&practice.For an alleged scientist to project an argument without fact nevermind lies perversely utilizing victims,historical&contemporary to advance a crazed rant,is criminal.Literally.What religion started world war ii?Stalinism?Pol pots regime?colonialism?Are all sex offenders theists?50% are atheist.The BRITISH EMPIRE,Dutch,French,Spanish etc colonized the globe which translates as territory grab&rape,pillage,genocide&a belief the monarch the embodiment of the divine SIR Dawkins.Ask the Sioux,Cheyenne,Cherokee,was colonialism religiously motivated?No,unless you count the 1000 year prima notte evil of royalism illegal under U.S. law since.Ask Jews,Muslims,Cambodians,Russians,Africans,Chinese,Australian!Was it a religious experience for you?Scientists are by nature empiricists,he is a dumb propagandist not the scientist-revisionist insinuated.

Initially, Richard's arrogant and condescending tone annoyed me, however, as the book progresses I learnt that there is alot I didn't realise about the negative aspects of religion. Eye opening, yet should be read with a grain of salt. Richard presents his arguments in a very concise, and logical manner. Overall, a brilliant argument against religion.

If thete is still any doubt in any persons mind of the existance of god personal or scriptural. Then any sane perdon reading this book will be hard presed into re evakuting thier own abuse and indictrainared lives. As a scientist once the evidance is presented in a clear and luvid form as dawkins. One has to knowledge his conclusion. As our insecuraties in holding on to that is something you have to figure out. Im finally libetsted and st peace. Thanks r .dawkins
