Now reading: God is not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything by author and journalist Christopher Hitchens.
In the book, Hitchens contends that religion is "violent, irrational, intolerant, allied to racism, tribalism, and bigotry, invested in ignorance and hostile to free inquiry, contemptuous of women and coercivetoward children." Hitchens supports his position with a mixture of personal stories, documented historical anecdotes and critical analysis of religious texts. His commentary focuses mainly on theAbrahamic religions, although he also touches on other religions such as Hinduism and Buddhism.

I got a new HP Mini notebook, which is compared to the Asus netbook more professional computer. The HP Mini 2140 Notebook PC features a simple, refined all-aluminum case.It features a large 10.1-inch diagonal scratch-resistant high-definition LED display, a full-size QWERTY keyboard, and a 140 gig hard-drive.
After using the little machine for 2 days, I am really impressed. Vista runs smooth, the battery lasts more then 3 hours and the screen is great to work with. This is one of the best netbooks that I have seen so far. If it would run os X it would be perfect. If I can find the time I will start experimenting with linux (Ubuntu) on it.
