Religion Poisons Everything.

“Violent, irrational, intolerant, allied to racism and tribalism and bigotry, invested in ignorance and hostile to free inquiry, contemptuous of women and coercive toward children: organized religion ought to have a great deal on its conscience.” 
― Christopher Hitchensgod is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything

Many more quotes from Mr. Hitchens at god is Not Great Quotes.

I read "god is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything." It's excellent and I recommend it.

The best book on this subject is "Faith Versus Fact" by Jerry Coyne. Mr. Coyne, a biologist at the University of Chicago, completely and repeatedly kills the ridiculous god fantasy.

Jerry Coyne also wrote "Why Evolution Is True" which is the best book ever written about the evidence for evolution. It's not tedious like some books about science. Every paragraph is interesting.
