In the house… and read it a while ago.
No I have not, is it any good?
A bit hard going to be honest. I will admit to being no intellectual! However there were some chapters that were very interesting.
Right. That will be a tbr then on the science-side. Thanx for the warning ?
Excellent!
Reading it now, interesting, but very dry.
I too. Have same feeling.

It’s illegal to share pirated copies of copyrighted books.
Atheist in the house. Never read up any books on atheism as I’m pretty solid in my beliefs. Ironically I enjoy reading books on the history of religion, kind of like from a mythological point of view.
Athiest here. I like to read about religion as well. Even if u are dolid I would still recommend the book to you. Of course if u like to read such books
I am not an athiest..but read everything..haven’t read this one yet,though.
Unlike most of the books on atheism who take on the topic from philosophical point of view this one is takes on the subject with the scientific method. You might love it.
Atheist here too. It’s on my bookshelf, where it’s been for some time. Still unread. ?
*raises hand* I’m in the house.
Secular Humanist here. Haven’t read the book. lol
I have read it. I love it.
Atheist here but I refuse to read Dawkins because I’m also a feminist :p
Would you mind clarifying? I don’t mean to dispute your reasons here, it’s just I’m not aware of what he’s said or done that might be of an antifeminist bent. Not to say it hasn’t happened, just that I must have missed it and this seems like as good an opportunity as any to make myself more aware 🙂
Not at all. You can read up on some of the controversies on his Wikipedia page https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_views_of_Richard_Dawkins#Feminism_and_women's_rights
I really don’t like his boorish behaviour, especially not victim blaming. The atheist and skeptic community has problematic culture generally when it comes to women and i can give a number of examples
I’m an atheist but haven’t read it. It is on my list
I read it when it was first published. It still sits on my bookshelf. Maybe it’s time to reread it.
yes, and also correspondence between RD and the Bishop of Durham. Interesting reading!
