I haven't read any of these guys but have listened to Dawkins and Hitchens speak... probably on links you posted Kerry. My problem with their approach is that they seem to catagorize religion and god in a very western way and then, even more so than many religious promoters might, compile everything 'religious' into one. And that in so doing, they assign negitive contributions, superstition, and evil outcomes to it's realm as the only possible result of a 'religious' experience. Seem's to me to be agenda driven... how many books can you sell riding the fence though. I'm interested to here if Dennett has a different approach.
