Sam Harris: "Why should we fall into this trap [of labelling oursleves atheists]? Why should we stand obediently in the space provided, in the space carved out by the conceptual scheme of theistic religion? It?s as though, before the debate even begins, our opponents draw the chalk-outline of a dead man on the sidewalk, and we just walk up and lie down in it. Instead of doing this, consider what would happen if we simply used words like ?reason? and ?evidence.? What is the argument against reason? It?s true that a few people will bite the bullet here and argue that reason is itself a problem, that the Enlightenment was a failed project, etc. But the truth is that there are very few people, even among religious fundamentalists, who will happily admit to being enemies of reason."
