Read the book, was very disappointed, he didnt deliver what he promised. He made out he was going to present a good logical argument for why there ‘probably isnt a god’ but all he did was an (admittedly good and justified) crtique of mainstream monotheism.
He carefully picked his subjects, things like the cosmological anthropic principle were generally brushed over and thrown in the heap with intelligent design and other absurd side effects of religions.
I’d have a lot more respect for the book if it was either more balanced or just called ‘the problems with religion’
Personally I think he’s a bit of a knob because he wants his subjective beliefs to be inshrined in law (eg religion and horoscopes etc made illegal), so he’s just as bad as a fundamentalist christian.
Christians and atheists are like a bunch of squabbling kids who need their heads knocking together. Why cant people realise that religion is subjective, it works for some and not for others and you’re very unlikely to change someones mind with mere words. Learn to live along side each other and mind your own business and everything will fine
However we need total separation of church and state before we can reduce the friction between the communities, I’ll get behind anyone trying to make that happen. Luckily our country is way ahead of a lot of the world in that respect.
