And Another Thing (Part 6 of 3) by Eoin Colfer (Book 6 of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy - approved by Douglas Adams' widow). Not far enough in to have a strong opinion one way or another yet...

Great selection! And definitely lends credence to your name.

Out of your list, I've read "Letter to a Christian Nation",  and "God Delusion", and really enjoyed both. I am also currently reading Dawkins' "The Blindwatchmaker" when I'm not reading the aforementioned "Wuthering Heights".
 
You should also check out Hitchens' "The Missionary Position", which is an expose of Mother Teresa. It was quite the eye opener.

I've read some things about her, all I can say is WOW!  She didn't just love helping the suffering, she simply loved the suffering and thought it was just, necessary and a virtue to suffer... how sad.

Hey guys I'm new to head-fi. I would recommend anything by Irvine welsh (especially Trainspotting, Glue or Marabou Stork Nightmares) and The God Delusion by Richard Dawkins. Read these books recently and they enlighten and entertain...
