Athiest Manifesto – Short and Sweet Review
French men must be intellectuals.
Too many big words to keep my attention so I didn’t get past the first chapter.
It was probably more of the same stuff anyway.

Hahahahaha amazing review. Now I know to avoid!
Haha, although I do like torturing myself and reading books with long words, so maybe I should pick this one up?
Sure, why not. Then you can tell me in normal words what I missed :p
I liked this book – because I learnt new words. It was like reading a Jane Austen novel, it cries to have a dictionary near by.
I saw Onfray speak at the Sydney Book Festival and he won me over with his strong view point and the way he pulled his argument from so many sources so eloquently. I bought the book as soon as his talk finished. Here was this man in square glasses, dressed in all black and hair awry telling a hall filled with strangers why the world would be a better place without religion. That takes courage and instant respect.
Perhaps I liked the book because it reinforced my current view. Perhaps I liked it because I could quote it to my Christian friend during our lovely long debates. Or perhaps I just liked Onfray’s tone.
This was one of the few books that travelled with me to D.C, mainly as a reminder than anything else.
That’s great Tash. And I respect anyone who has the balls to say that kind of thing and write a book about it. I guess I’m a lazy reader, I prefer easy to read. Like Harry Potter or The Da Vinchi Code.
I admit, I haven’t read Harry Potter, I think J. K. Rowling stole a lot of her characters from other books.
And as for the Da Vinci Code, that wasn’t a simple book. Give yourself more credit. :)
