The End of Faith: Religion, Terror, and the Future of Reason
Faith: The very ideal of religious tolerance—born of the notion that every human being should be free to believe whatever he wants about God—is one of the principal forces driving us toward the abyss, p.15
Religion: ... much of the world's population could be annihilated on account of religious ideas that belong on the same shelf with Batman, p.129
The Future of Reason: Reason is nothing less than the guardian of love, p.19
Sam Harris boldly challenges the influence that faith has on public life in our nation.
"For those of us who feel depressed by this country’s ever increasing unification of church and state, and the ever decreasing support for the sciences that deliver knowledge and reduce ignorance, this little book is a welcome hit of adrenalin."
— Marc Hauser, Professor of Psychology, Biology, and Biological Anthropology at Harvard University, author of Moral Minds
