It seems A C Grayling has writen a text which he hopes will provide a nucleus for atheisic thinking.

Wont, work atheists are a cantankerous bunch of non-conformists.

Apart from the ones that arent.

Way too much effort. A simple business card would suffice.

It seems A C Grayling is a moron. I only hope he has not and does not reproduce.

I tend to like Grayling, at least in the debates I've seen, but this is stoopid.

Call it sin, or call it the unconscious, he explains, it is a part of human life that we find it very difficult to see with a clear rational eye

Coming from an Absurdist. I whole heartedly agree.
