<P>
We disagreed about the Iraq War – he was for it, I was against it. Despite the occasional temptation, I have never reviewed any of his books until today. 
</P><P>
But now, in God Is Not Great, he has written about religion itself, attacking it as a stupid delusion. 
</P><P>
This case, I feel, needs an answer. Most of the British elite will applaud, since they see religion as an embarrassing and (worse) unfashionable form of mania. 
</P><P>
And I am no less qualified to defend God than Christopher is to attack him, neither of us being experts on the subject.
</P><P>
People sometimes ask how two brothers, born less than three years apart, should have come to such different conclusions. 
</P><P>
To which I’d answer that I’m not sure they’re as different as they look, and that it’s not over yet.</P></blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/8779E9B6-CF72-4038-A4B6-A8771CF93095/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
