In the tradition of Bertrand Russell's Why I Am Not a Christian and Sam Harris's, The End of Faith, Christopher Hitchens makes the ultimate case against religion. With a close and erudite reading of the major religious texts, he documents the ways in which religion is a man-made wish, a cause of dangerous sexual repression, and a distortion of our origins in the cosmos. With eloquent clarity, Hitchens frames the argument for a more secular life based on science and reason, in which the heavens are replaced by the Hubble Telescope's awesome view of the universe, and Moses and the burning bush give way to the beauty and symmetry of the double helix.

As someone with differing views to the Author ( in as much as not everyone with religious views is against other Faith's etc )
I found the book thoughtful,insightful and that valid points was raised, while still ( mostly!) respecting other people who disagree with his point of view.
A very good listen

Thoughtful intelligent viewpoints

if you were alive you would have a field day. The only thing that I can add is that it is not that God is not great, it is that he dosen't exists at all.

Great book

This book is an indepth study if the major religions that currently influence society. Brilliantly researched and written. As a practicing Christian, I was challenged on numerous occasions to think about the practice of my religion all over the world. One small problem, Hitchens does not acknowledge the anything positive about the practice of religion.

Brilliant, thought provoking book

This book has finally opened my eyes to a truth Ive suspect for some time. That until we free ourselves from the metaphysical plague that is religion we will never be able to experience true freedom. Freedom to embrace our short lives for the miracle that it is and enjoy every moment thanks to the realisation of its fragility and it’s absolute end. A masterpiece. I am finally free.

Religion is a virus
