I just finished reading End of Faith by Sam Harris. Good book, though I don’t agree with all his points. We need more vocal people like him. The book deserves a full review which hopefully I’ll get around to.
I try to read something serious occasionally. When I’m done though, I indulge in my ‘brain candy’ […]
