God is Not Great
I've long tried to reconcile Christopher Hitchens' irrational and pigheaded support of the war in Iraq with his clear, rational, and resolute dismissal of religion. God is not Great is great. Of course, Hitchens' newly converted fans on the right with will disavow or ignore it. Their crusade against "terrorism" and Islam comes from the same blind impulse that fuels bin Laden and his followers. God is the problem, not the solution.

I also do not understand Hitchens neoconservative agenda and his other ideas. What went wrong with him?
We're reading and discussing "God is Not Great" on http://www.booktalk.org so if you find the time I'd love for you to join the discussion and post this review on our forums. If possible we'll host a live chat with Christopher Hitchens. Past guests have included Richard Dawkins, Steven Pinker and Michael Shermer. Thanks.
