So this has been bubbling around in my head for a while - before things got a little 'busy' in point of fact - but I've not really had chance to put it down in writing until now.
I've been reading The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins and whilst his style is unashamedly confrontational, I'd be lying if I said I didn't find the core theme to be internally consistent and well-argued. As "evangelical atheism" goes, its does a strong job, even acknowledging that "statistically probable atheism" is the most intellectually honest position.
