I was halfway through the third or fourth paragraph and thoroughly confused which Russel is the author talking about. I don’t understand why the author mentions the first Russel if the article isn’t (mainly) about a comparison between the two.
It confused me so I’ll ask the obvious question: this article is about the second Russel who wrote Why I am not a Christian, right?
What? Okay, I really didn’t realize that it’s just one Russel.
I mean if you read the first paragraph and don’t have background in philosophy you would assume there were two persons named Russel after reading the first paragraph! I mean author says the first Russell was short lived and gives yearX-yearY. So yeah, I thought the first Russell died in yearY!!
