More from a link I sent to Jon B regarding what the author calls, "the
neo-atheists". The author himself is an atheist, so I find his criticism
more cogent than I could provide.

"This sloppiness and lack of intellectual scruple, with the assumption of
certainty where there is none, combined with adolescent shrillness and
intolerance, reach an apogee in Sam Harris’s book *The End of Faith*. It is
not easy to do justice to the book’s nastiness; it makes Dawkins’s claim
that religious education constitutes child abuse look sane and moderate."
