The End of Faith...

The End of Faith, Religion, Terror and the Future of Reason. - A recorded Sam Harris lecture.

Also, I read about half of The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins, but I got mixed up in finals and other school work. So far, very helpful and well argued. But then again, I wasn't a believer in the first place. I do firmly believe in the powers of science, though, and it seems he uses logic, reasoning, and all those yummy treats of human consciousness to his advantage.

I particularly enjoy the moral/being "good" part.

I still find it hard to explain myself when in the face of religious questioners. I guess I should read the book a few times over so I have got the information in memory banks for future use, and I really understand the reasoning why I un-believe what I do.
