You need to train yourself to read, start of with simple shit like Dickens then work your way up.

Don't read the Sam Harris book, unless you have a strong education in Western philosophy.
He will make countless shit, invalid, biased arguments, and if you don't know better you may end up believing in them.
Start with the greeks and avoid pseudocelebrities.

Joseph Stewart
I prefer his commentary on current events than his "philosophy".

im not educated in that field, or in any really. but I'm a fan of Harris and i've seen him talk on his Australian tour and have read much of his writings. What's lit's beed with the man? He seems to argue and debate like a sensical man
