    I'm surprised and intrigued to find a living fan of Bertrand Russell. What do you like about him?

    As it happens his book you reference made a big impact on me when I was a teenager, but that was
    before I discovered LW (and God). Not sure you're accurate in saying LW was a closet catholic
    though. There are some fairly clear instances where he distances himself from religious faith ("I am
    not a religious person but I can't help seeing everything from a religious point of view" being
    probably the most famous).
    Regards
    Sam
