Letter to a Christian Nation

Book • 2006
In 'Letter to a Christian Nation', Sam Harris responds to the feedback he received after the publication of his first book, 'The End of Faith'.

Harris argues against the rationality of Christian scriptures and the concept of intelligent design, highlighting the conflicts between religion and science.

He critiques the moral and intellectual implications of religious dogma, particularly in areas such as stem-cell research, condom use in Africa, and the prevention of HIV and AIDS.

Harris also addresses the problem of evil and the perceived false morality created by religious beliefs.

The book is written in the form of an open letter to a Christian in the United States, aiming to challenge the influence of faith on public policy and societal values.
