As could be expected, Harris batted Sullivan's pseudo-argument out of

kept doggedly on, wondering if he'd ever begin to make sense ... but,
no, it was too much to expect.
Bravo for Harris's well-reasoned dismantling of Sullivan's gibberish.
Fortunately--having heard Sullivan's emotional reaching long before
this debate started--I've not read more than a couple of paragraphs
of his recent schlock.
Long story short: go out, no RUN out and buy _Letter to a Christian
Nation_ and read the 21st century version of what Frederick Nietzsche
had to say in the last century and learn how the delusion of belief
is the greatest threat to sentient life in the history of this planet.
If you cannot do that, at least take the time to watch this 20 minute

Then, maybe then, you'll realize *why* worship of god or gods is the
greatest danger we all face.
