I have to agree with you, David Norris, Russell's  "Why I am not a
Christian"  is certainly a disappointing book.  The counters to the
arguments for god's existence are good, and some telling criticisms
are made of some of the things done in the name of Christ (remember,
many of the christians concerned were sincere), but such things are
really not the issue.  We already know that those arguments are
problematic (to put it gently) and that all sorts of religiously
inspired actions have been rotten.  Yes, I was disappointed by
Bertie.
