teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

I don't remember that part, but it's only been about 1/2 C since I read it. Kinda boring actually.

It is better than the first one. In this one, the nazis get involved and the whole war breaks out across time, among other things. It is a huge book but very exciting.
