I read that book a long time ago.It perfectly illustrated what I already knew but was worth reading.Prof' Dawkins has his own youtube channel now.I recommend checking it out.



Yes. I've seen it. I would also recommend the non-prophets or the Atheist Experience. I went to see Dawkins a few months ago when he did his lecture on the Purpose of Purpose. It was a good lecture.

I am currently reading:

Lost Cities of The Ancient World, beautiful pictures in the book.

I will be reading this by next week: Hell to Pay by Simon R Green. I have to finish another book in the Nightside series before continuing on to this one, we went to three book stores to get this book and it should be worth it.

Also some books on crime and serial killers. Great for late night reading and getting to scared to move out of bed.

I’ve just finished reading a Young Adult novel called A Killer’s Tears. It was a sad, but worthwhile read. It really showed how someone could be both good and evil at the same time. This struck a chord with me because of my own contradictory thoughts and actions. I think most people have this ongoing tug-of-war within themselves. It’s quite possible to be on both sides of the extreme, and be sincere in those opposing sides at the same time.

I am now moving on to This Will Kill You, a book about all the ways we kick the bucket. Some parts really creep me out, as I can’t help but experience the range of symptoms listed for various causes of death. (I’ll refrain from details here.)

Heck yeah! I lost the first and third books in the series and can't really afford to replace them at the moment, so that would be a great help!

Hey dude,

I edited-out your email there because it could have attracted bots which would then spam your address. As an admin/moderator, I can see your email address anyway. I got your PM anyway though! I have other books on PDF too if you want them:

- Douglas Adams compendium
- Mein Kampf (by you know who... ...)
- The Lord of the Rings collection
- Stephen Hawking's A Brief History of Time
- Anne Hooper's Illustrated Kama Sutra
