  5. Nice to see that despite the interviewer's saccharine-coated questions, Russell doesn't give one millimeter!

  6. Your library is incomplete without, "Why I Am Not a Christian".  If you are a reader of the new atheism, make sure that you include this 'classic' book in your literary experience.

  9. I respect the mans' beliefs and his right eo express them. It seems to me that he is just as myopic in his reasons for his beliefs as some religous people are about theirs'.

  11. Bretand Rusell is from one of the biggest names of history and he’s my favorite author as well. His book “ conquest of the happiness “ is awesome and the essay named “in phrase of idleness” is amazing, may cause it describes me well, lol!.... ?  bretand always provided positive motivation and good approach towards life.
