Sam Harris - interview on Rediff

This is the author of "End of Faith". I personally liked the book. As usual, there are things you agree with and things that you don't (some of his views were plain absurd to me). But nonetheless, I really appreciated his candid and clear expression of his views. I remember discussing this book with Pappu in particular but I did mention it to most junta. In the book, he basically questions Islam (and Christianity and other religions of the book) and suggests eastern mysticism/ spirituality as an alternative "if needed". He himself is an atheist. And he questions Gandhiism/ pacificism big time as well!
