About this listen
PRAISE FOR MOSTLY HARMFUL
How could anyone outdo the feat of writing Beyond the Crusades? Only its author could do that, as we see in Michael Paulkovich's Mostly Harmful: 1001 Things Everyone Should Know about Religion. This is a wonderfully readable reference book needed by everyone trying to lead a life of reason...
-- Frank R. Zindler, Editor, American Atheist Press
Michael Paulkovich's new book, Mostly Harmful, with its vibrant melding of intellectual rigor and pungent, satirical humor, is the best possible antidote to the dogmatism, obscurantism, and plain foolishness of most religious creeds. With this book, along with his previous works, Paulkovich deserves to be placed with Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, and Sam Harris as a modern titan of atheism.
-- S. T. Joshi, The Unbelievers: The Evolution of Modern Atheism
