The man isn't just a media lightning rod, he is a very knowledgeable scientist. And the "God Delusion" was very much needed, atheists in the US have been treated like red-headed step children for as long as I can remember.

Chuck Close works exclusively from photographs, and no one would describe his work as flat. Some artists' work require so many hours of labor that working with models becomes impractical.

That was pretty good.
