Douthat's review is crap (though I haven't read it). Love your new book EN (though I haven't it read either). Completely agree with Parsons (though he hasn't read your book). Mr Douthat (who hasn't read it) is obviously wrong.

Modern GOP: "a pastiche of religious fundamentalism, free-market fundamentalism, gun fetishism, conspiracy theories, nativism, assorted phobias (homo-, xeno-, and Islamo-, among others), anti-science obscurantism, and sheer tinfoil-hat-wearing lunacy." Love it!

I would highly recommend Isaiah Berlin's essay "The Counter-Enlightenment" to those wishing to understand the centuries old and sustained criticism of the Enlightenment movement. Needless to say, it is enlightening.

I think you could have phrased it a bit better Pinker. "Keith Parsons intellectually rapes and murders conservative fossil Ross Douthat"

Please disabuse yourself of the notion that any columnist in the New York Times is a Conservative. They may not always be as far to the Left as the others, but they are not Conservative. The Times would not be able to keep a real Conservative writer.
