Ha! I was at the Real Time where him and Affleck went at it. Even thou I agree with Harris I was hoping Ben would knock his ass out! That should tell you all you need.

People with confidence and intelligence are sexy to me!

His overriding self confidence might be it... it can be irritating ....and a little off putting....?

He's a racist bastard. He needs calling out.

I think having to deal with ignorant zealots and explaining he same old logic while banging your head against the proverbial brick wall would make someone condescending at times, or pretentious as you say. But when I compare him with say Dawkins, I'd consider him humble. In anycase, I do not care. These guys are out there fighting the logic fight and I am so glad about that.

I actually like sam.

At least he really gets Seinfeld.

I like what he talks about, but i think he's pretentious.

He has nothing on Christopher Hitchens even though he is just as smart. Just lacks that special charisma.

You’re definitely not the only one. I can’t stand him. I never real could. Then after a few years of trying to give him a chance he was supporting asinine stuff like stop & frisk policies of the NYPD, and made some misogynistic comments but instead of apologizing came up with the “I can’t be a misogynist because I have a mom and a wife” sort of bullshit. It was just too much. I gave away the two books of his I had to people that wanted it and I just continue living my life without giving him much thought.

I admire him for the most part and enjoy listening to his talks. I do not agree with everything he says but the man is intelligent and articulate.

I think he's rather attractive.
