"Forty-four percent of the American population is convinced that Jesus will return to judge the living and the dead sometime in the next 50 years," writes Sam Harris. "Imagine the consequences if any significant component of the U.S. government actually believed that the world was about to end and that its ending would be glorious. The fact that nearly half of the American population apparently believes this, purely on the basis of religious dogma, should be considered a moral and intellectual emergency."

In response to his award-winning best seller The End of Faith, Sam Harris received thousands of letters from Christians excoriating him for not believing in God. Letter to A Christian Nation is his courageous and controversial reply. Using rational argument, Harris offers a measured refutation of the beliefs that form the core of fundamentalist Christianity. Addressing current topics ranging from intelligent design and stem-cell research to the connections between religion and violence, Letter to A Christian Nation boldly challenges the influence that faith has on public life in the United States.

This book resonated for me as few before, but I've yet to see any comments on the reader, Jordan Bridges. This is among the finest and most engaging readings of a any work I've acquired. While not perfect, Bridges hits Harris' tone and intent time after time, matching him almost note for note. At times angry, sarcastic, witty, emotive and always passionate, this is a very fine effort that deserves recognition and respect. I hope we are lucky enough to hear Harris' next work read by Bridges.

the author clearly shows the danger to the human race in continuing down the present path. I loved this book...it should be required reading.

Harshly critical of mainly Christianity, and all religion in general. one sided, and confrontational, but like all his agruments well reasoned, logically consistant, and complete.

This is a great introduction to some of the best atheist arguments. Sam Harris writes in a way that clearly articulates deep ideas without the clutter or over simplification of some other authors. I highly recommend this book as well as the Moral Landscape which I consider to be one of the best books ever written on the subject of morality.

An excellent and devastating critique of religion

A brief, well written set of arguments for his position. Very good read and an excellent companion to his other works.

This is a very important book that everyone in the world should read for the sake of our world! I realize this will not happen but if I had one wish it would be to transmit the message of this book into every living person’s brain, with understanding,simultaneously! I believe that this could truly save our civilization. Without this common understanding, I have great fear for our future as a planetary society.
Thank you Sam Harris for being a voice of reason in the melee of humanity!

Everyone needs to read this! Seriously.

What the world needs to hear. I rank this alongside Professor Bart Erhmann's work on The Great Courses. Very revealing.

Excellent

Although published a few years ago, this book is as relevant as ever. Maybe even more so today.

Well written letter, needs to be republished
