I enjoyed Sam Harris's "Letter To A Christian Nation" a lot. It's concise, slightly under 100 pages, and highlights many of the absurdities of organized religion, and to a lesser degree, simple spirituality. I'm not completely in his camp, but I found myself agreeing with the bulk of his opinions. And I have the Hitchens book on order from Amazon. It's about time the "free thinkers" got some ink. Here's a link to Hitchens recent interview on the Boston-based NPR show "On-Point".
