    A smart guy, who wrote well. But really an intellectual whore -- didn't think to much of him I am sorry to say. But if he got you into Trotsky, well, that's at least one good thing he did.

    No, he was a pesky "New Atheist" anti-theist.

    I found him entertaining. Nothing he did was ever boring.

    An idiot. The likes of Zizek do a much better job understanding how religion works. He was too simplistic and obvious...
