Steve, I've not read Sam Harris so far, but he's on my list, and I've been following reviews / debates - I was initially put off a first impression of his extreme tone, but I suspect that may have been misleading. (Of the current batch I read Dennett's "Spell", but not Dawkins' "Delusion" either.) In the middle of a debate about Dennett elsewhere.
Interestingly the agnostic / atheist distinction becomes moot, once you get to the point that the ontological question - the existence of god or otherwise - ceases to be interesting ... The real (ie pragmatic, rather than metaphysical) issue becomes what people do with professed religious faith. Regards, Ian.
