I've not read "God is not Great", so I can't speak to it. But the bible is held by most christians, certainly the fundamentalist "born again" branch to be the word of God. Period. They do not distinguish one book, one section or one verse as being more or less idiotic than another. That said, why wouldn't he go directly to it's weakest points? I would. There was a nice debate about circumcision on Hubski that was started via a Hitch post. I shall try and find it. Here it is. He is definitely not without hyperbole but he was also quite entertaining. Wish he were still around.
