I am up to page 20-something. I am loving it too. I love the tone and what Dawkins has to say.
I appreciate the fact that he has started with Einstein's god and the fact that many theists and religionists point to Einstein as a religious (traditional) man. He was not. I get sick everytime I hear that argument.
On thought I had from these chapters is the benefits and kid-glove attitude religions seem to get. Case in point is that Supreme Court case about the hallucinegenic drugs that one church is allowed to use in their rituals. Another is the fact that you can opt out of school vaccinations due to religious reasons, but not many other that are philosophical or belief related. This is crap. I know one mother who joined a religion online that was set up for the purpose of getting around the vaccines...it worked. Silly.
