Letter to a Christian Nation by Sam Harris
After publishing The End of Faith, Harris received so much hate mail, particularly from Christians, that he composed a treatise that speaks directly to Christians. It refutes specific right wing positions with concrete data, i.e., stem cell research, abstinence, and all religious beliefs and practices that result in increased suffering rather than increased well-being. It is clear and concise.
God is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything by Christopher Hitchens
Hitchens, like Dawkins, is an author who is well acquainted with religious texts of many sources, and is particularly well versed in Bible scholarship. While both he and Dawkins are appreciative of the Bible as literature, Hitchens is adamant that there is no reason to adopt any supernatural beliefs based on these readings.

This is a perfect companion to Christopher Hitchens’ God is Not Great and Sam Harris’ Letter to a Christian Nation.
