The author has arbitrarily determined that believing in god is heroic and not believing is anti-heroic. His arguments were vapid and his conclusions were biased. Roche was making moral assumptions that were not necessarily true and attempting to find ways to vilify any persons who he deemed did not agree with his theology.

It was certainly ironic to read the author's criticisms of sexual depravity only to discover that during the time he wrote this book and for another 12 years (until she committed suicide) he was having sexual relations with his son's wife. I cannot trust people who are a disgrace to their own proclaimed values and yet feel the need to point the finger at the world and paint us all with the same brush. I am morally superior than you were, Mr. Roche, and we can make a better, secular world without you.… (altro)

Spot on, 15 years after publications. A good review of the student loan situation,summaries of acts in which the federal government benefited education- GI Bill, National Defence Education Act, Higher Education Act of 1965, origin of Sallie Mae. There is an interesting statement that reflects tuition setting today:"Many private colleges and universities also routinely discount full tuition by as much as 7,000 a year".
