The Chapel Hill Murders and 'Militant’ Atheism

Beschrijving

Sam Harris responds to the charge that "militant" atheism is responsible for the murder of three Muslim students in North Carolina.

Very interesting. Aslan writes articles about me, hires people to write even longer ones (Nathan Lean is the editor-in-chief of Aslan Media), continually mentions me and distorts my views in his press appearances, and tweets about me with abandon—and he believes that I’m obsessed with him. It is safe to say that I would never mention Aslan again if he stopped spreading lies about me.—SH
