Sam Harris challenges the continually asserted but utterly absurd notion that morality is intrinsically linked to religious faith. Morality has nothing to do with gods. He also exposes the dangers of failing to adequately challenge the metaphysics of martyrdom in the age of WMD. The stalemate of MAD during the Cold War relied on the mutual fear of destruction. As Sting’s “Russians” song points out, we were safe as long as the Russians loved their children too, but when the sting of death is removed, we can no longer rely on this equilibrium to save us from violence.
