Ebon Muse reviews Portable Atheist
Ebon Muse has posted a review of Christopher Hitchens' The Portable Atheist. It's a nice review, though overall I have a more positive view of the book--less bothered by the omissions, fine with Hobbes, I really think it's a must-read. I was annoyed, though, by Hitchens' choice of a Sagan excerpt. Sagan had so much to say on the power of reason, but Hitchens' zeros in on the sexual element of the witch hunts. That was unfortunate.

too bad ebon muse has become a censor on his own blog. When he is losing badly he just bans the competition. Then deletes the troublesome posts!
