1. Richler defends atheism

No doubt Greybishop,
It could also be very educational and a chance for people to come up with the most obscure gods/godesses from the past. Let's start the revolution!

Great idea Ridelo,
I vote for heretic - heck even atheist is still a great word because it makes people cringe. I like to say it proudly. Also, I have tried to make a point of not saying "TGIF" or "Oh My God!!" It is more fun to substitute god with other gods and make people think about how arbitrary whatever god they are believing is and how relative it is to the time and place in which they live. TGIZ or Oh My Zeus! works. My mom loves to say "Oh my Santa!"

I don't have Mr. Dawkin's book in front of me, but I don't think he coined the term "brights" did he? Can someone clarify as I have lent my book out. Good response to Ms. Kay's article, such as it was.

I am not experienced in surveys, but can anyone tell me if 1000 people is a good sample?

I haven't posted before, but this article really makes me want to enter the conversation. Reed sounds like a smart and well read person and I applaud him for his courage. Keep it up!
