Estranged Notions: The Dogmas and Failure of Rational Atheism
Today's post:
The Dogmas and Failure of Rational Atheism
Usual drivel. Criticizes Harris' The End Of Faith as though it were the be-all and end-all of atheist criticism of religion; spouts typical nonsense about things like the Golden Rule (which predates not only Christianity but even Judaism, and was independently stated in philosophies such as Confucianism) and the consequences of atheism.

Estranged Notions: Three False Christs: The Myth, the Mortal, and the Guru
Enough strawmen here to fill any number of stables:
Three False Christs: The Myth, the Mortal, and the Guru
Olson's primary choice of targets are those noted scholarly experts Dan Brown, Deepak Chopra, and Christopher Hitchens; no mention of anyone with much actual credibility (such as, say, recent academic publications) on the topic. Also commits the error of treating the gospels as a consistent unit, and ignoring the inconsistencies.
