It sounds as if you lot don't talk of these books too highly?

Thankyou very much!
I did join the Richard Dawkins forum.. but I felt intimated..
and the size and nature of Atheist Forums . org was more suited to me personally. This forum is really nice.. it feels like a community!
I also felt awkward joining a forum named by a person.. does Richard Dawkins think he is the prophet of Atheists or something?
Either way, thanks for the link Adrian.. it will surely keep me reading until the end of day!
Perhaps, I will contribute to the Richard Dawkins forum when I feel more capable and have the time.
Also, Adrian I think you should pick the book today or create the poll! =]
