Eh, I'm not a fan and I do think that much of his writing and talks are categorically dangerous. I've not paid him any attention for years. I read of him in Free Inquiry and obtained a copy of The End of Faith. I found it initially quite interesting, yet the more I read the more I sensed something amiss. When I read into the portion where he cites Samuel Huntington, Alan Dershowitz and proceeds to attack Noam Chomsky, what seemed amiss became clear at once. What he writes about George W. Bush and Tony Blair is contemptible and indefensible. His argument of a scenario for a nuclear first-strike is itself a piece of violence and is unconscionable. Absolutely appaling, I was very disgusted.

It's truly a shame that so much of his work is laced with the most heinous neoliberal, state worship. It ruins most of his otherwise cogent arguments against faith and religious fanaticism. Anyone who even considers anything short of nuclear disarmament and abolishment, let alone an argument for a nuclear first-strike, removes themselves from any secular, rational discussion.

Nuclear disarmament and abolishment, lmao.

We learned more about space and the deep ocean in the past 20 years then we did in the past 2000 years. Hard telling what the next few decades will show.

Truly science increases the wealth of genuine human understanding exponentially. The scientific method is the only way to knowledge. It is the most luminously enlightening element of organised human life when harnessed correctly, such as the case with astrophysics and marine biology.

Within sociopolitical and ethical avenues, as Scott Atran observes above, along with plenty others, the history is varied. Science produced atomic and nuclear bombs and therein the potential extinction of the human species, along with an exorbitance of other biological life.
