Is Sam Harris becoming a pariah for the anti-religious cause?

RE: Is Sam Harris becoming a pariah for the anti-religious cause?
It's hard to imagine how he couldn't see the immorality of our Iraqi invasion a priori. The shifting reas -- er, excuses given (before the war started) for prosecuting it reminded me of my son trying to fib his way out of trouble by throwing shit against the wall to see what stuck.

Sadly enough, dribs of this and drabs of that stuck, and the majority of American people are too stupid to see that we have blood on our hands, by way of our votes. If the only thing Harris can muster against the Iraq invasion is "it didn't work", he's lost a hell of a lot of credibility with me -- never mind his stance on your OP topic.

Forgive my digression.
