Yup, Hitchens was right Kyle. But you have to admit that Falwell makes an easy target: a great big bloated pinata. Not too hard to score a direct hit on, cracking him open and spilling his candy all over the place....

Okay, enough of that analogy.....

Actually, I'm curious to hear how you Sam Harris fans justify his pro-torture and anti-Muslim diatribes in "The End of Faith". Parts of his book reads like a rationale for the "War on Terror".

And this criticism of Bill Moyers (p. 47):

"...we have the likes of Bill Moyers convening earnest gatherings of scholars for the high purpose of determining just how the book of Genesis can be reconciled with life in the modern world."

Sorry Sam. Nothing wrong with scholarly inquiry and discussion. And Bill Moyers has done more to shine a light into America's dark corners than you're ever likely to do.
