Thanks for your work indeed, and for unapologetically taking on religious nuttery. By the way, your book The God Delusion could be considered a manifestation of the Bodhisattva Manjushri! That Bodhisattva is usually depicted as carrying a sword that cuts through delusion. I think The God Delusion indeed plays the same role.

Per Greg’s critique of your advocacy stance- in a diverse and inclusive society all rational viewpoints should be welcome. I salute you in presenting your viewpoint for the world to digest and contemplate. Thanks for your wonderful thought-leadership over the past decades. You are a true inspiration- whether we agree with your advocacy position or not. Best, Dolores Happy Birthday!

Thanks for every word in The God Delusion. Going easy on religion has not helped much in the past, and the time is perfect for reason to have an unapologetic voice.

I wish your latest book was available when I was 17 and struggling to break from Catholicism. Your book and others provoke rich discussions among humanists that will lead to a stronger community.
