Breaking The Spell..

I just started reading "Breaking The Spell" by Daniel C. Dennett. I'm only on page 20 or so and I have been underlining and circling passages for future reference. I was watching a 2 Hour documentary called "The Four Horsemen". It features Richard Dawkins, Daniel Dennett, Christopher Hitchens and Sam Harris in a round table discussion about religion. I guess you could call these guys the most visible atheist of the day. All four gentlemen have had Best Sellers concerning atheism and religion. So to have them sitting around a table drinking cocktails and comparing notes is something special. Daniel Dennett is a philosopher and professor at Tufts University. His idea is to put organized religion through a series of scientific scrutiny. It seems any opposition to religion is automatically dismissed because of Blind Faith. There is no scientic evidence to prove the existence of "god". I have to believe that is the reason a lot of religionists look down on the scientific method. Hence the idea of an intelligent designer and creationism. If the idea that god created the universe is true, then my question is, who created god? You can ask that until infinity. The idea of spirituality is ok with me, we all need something to keep us going. But to base and put faith in a supreme being seems a little far fetched. So hopefully Daniel C. Dennett is on to something when he trys to "Break The Spell"....
