Sam Harris is no hero to me. His anti-Muslim screed and support for torture totally sank whatever his message may have been about religion.

Compared to people I consider great thinkers and synthesizers: Joseph Campbell, Mircea Eliade, Huston Smith, Gary Snyder, Harris is third rate. He wrote a diatribe that became a best-seller. Easy to do in our reactive and unthinking age. He's not even as entertaining as the other great polemicist Christopher Hitchens, who at least knows how to write.
