...seniors as against the Camels. In quite possibly their last game together in the pool, the six seniors (Cassandra Forsyth, Melissa McCreery, Melissa Mueller, Lauren Stoppel and co-captains Vivian Liao and Lauren Snyder – who played with tape over her broken finger) led Harvard to a successful finish by providing six of the team’s nine goals.

Biologist P.Z. Myers, for example, tells Stein that religion ought to be seen as little more than a soothing pastime, a bit like knitting. Books such as Christopher Hitchens' God Is Not Great and Richard Dawkins' The God Delusion often read like pure taunting, as when Hitchens pettily and pointedly types God as lowercase god.
