The God Delusion
I just got a copy of The God Delusion. I'm on Chapter 4 and have been enjoying it very much. I don't really agree on how Dawkins thinks we should handle religion. We should argue vehemently against it, yes, but not with the vigour he is advocating.
I'm afraid that if atheists start berating the religious, there will be a collective backlash. Perhaps that is unfounded worry.
After reading The God Delusion, I'm planning on reading Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time. So, I have a lot to look forward to.
Does anyone have any reading suggestions? Anyone? Anyone?

It's essential reading for any atheist, and it's a classic for any philosopher, and it's free!

Why?
Here's a YouTube video on Haisch's 'The God Theory.'
It seems to be nothing more than the cosmological and teleological arguments.

I've already read two of those. Both Letter To A Christian Nation and End of Faith. I will consider the other title though.
Perfect!
The suggestions are great and just what I was looking for. Thank you all!
