Agreed. But I am partial to her anyway, so I might be biased.

Sigh, more persecution of those long-suffering Christians. How I sympathize with their plight!

Borders is distributing cards saying "Come All Ye Faithless" with copies of The God Delusion.

A genuine Catholic priest patiently tries to set us all straight in an interview on Salon, and gets crucified (metaphorically) in the comments.

Well, it only makes their faith stronger, I suppose. Good for the soul.

I really wish these priests would learn a little logic, though. It would help them if they really want to get some respect.

This is good for our friends, the Christians.
The spell has been broken, and the myths can be examined and talked about by a expanding fraction of society. Just like Zeus or Thor, we may have to move on to one more god, as the curtain falls.
