Books
We love books. Tell us about your favourite books and authors, and why they are so good. And while you're at it - having dined out for years on the time I threw Dan Brown out of a train window - tell us who to avoid.

Ah, well, fair enough, politely put. May I apologise for prior impetuous 'c' bomb?
For the record, I think Dawkins, as a person, seems dreadful: a patronising, arrogant, conceited self-publicist. And not a great scientist. However, my initial point was: however awful he is, he's not going to blow anyone up because of what he thinks. And as for the suggestion (not by you, I think) that my athiesm is merely intellectual posturing...wow.
Anyway, I'm spent; have a good rest-of-sunday.

Cunt is bandied about by many on here (myself included),
so I've long since ceased to view is as a genuine term of abuse!
To be honest, I'm probably being needlessly argumentative, and getting upset on the internet (atheism is a reliable trigger, for me).
