Atheist Manifesto (Michel Onfray)

My biggest complaint with Michel Onfray's manifesto is that it looks at religions that have existed for thousands of years from the point of view of the present, while ignoring valid historic rationals for some of the commandments. Keeping Kosher may have had much less to do with control, as Onfray argues, than it did with observed health effects. In the end, I feel I've heard more intelligent, insightful, and well thought-out diatribes while waiting for my sub at the local pizza shop during my lunch hour, than were contained in this book.
