I love that book. I would buy it if my parents would allow it.
Oh, and there's a preview on Google Books. Here.

I bought my copy today. You could always tell them that not only would you enjoy it, but it could be a "test" of their faith.

I wanna read it so badly it hurts! But I don't find it in my local Borders (or any other one, for that matter) and my parents most likely wouldn't buy it. stare
So I'll either have to wait for someone to leak the whole book onto the internet or have the library people at my school buy it.

If you guys can't buy it, maybe a library would have it?

You could buy it from Barnes and Noble without them knowing if you want?
Well, The God Delusion is quite a popular book among atheists. I, however, don't think the book is as good as some others that I have read...
My favorites are: The End of Faith by Sam Harris and Irreligion by.. I forgot o.O
I also like "godless". It was written by some former evangelical pastor/priest.
The End of Faith is the best though. I like Sam Harris' sense of humor.

There's several mp3 versions released if you wanted to torrent it.

I suggest picking up "American Fascists; The Christian Right and the War on America".

It is written by a Christian. It is very good.
