Letter To A Christian Nation

Letter To A Christian Nation

Sam Harris' thin book to inspire thick controversy. I agree with most of what he has to say and agree with his assessment of the profound dangers of great power combined with great stupidity, which has been the American trajectory of late. But I have no hope whatever that this or any other book will change minds or lead to greater understanding or help times become more peaceful. Although written "to a Christian nation," this strikes me more as singing to the secular choir.
