Here is an essay by him. You can decide if this is "cope."

Also, I'm curious about your screen name. You know that sophistry and sophists have kind of a bad reputation, right?

Let's just say that it tells you everything you need to know about a person's ethics when he willfully joins a pedo club.
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"
