First time caller, long time lurker
by Gollum infinally, guilt at just being a lurker has driven me onto the board.
not that i feel i have much to add, but did want to extend my appreciation for much of the information and insight i have received from many of the posters here.. i suppose some brief synopsis of my story should be forthcoming.
its very similar to many of stories i have read here.. was raised in the truth ,third generation on both sides.

Cool little article from Richard Dawkins
by Gollum in.
i know, i know, the evolution vs creation thing has been flogged to death lately, but i thought this was a great article, with the standard level of dawkins sarcasm, which used to irritate the hell out of me when i was a dub, and now i just love it.. on a side note, i've given up and resorted to ie when going to this site.
i miss my beloved firefox already, sniff, sniff.. .

Penn Jillette gives a great essay on Atheism
by Gollum innpr has revived an old radio thing from the 50's called "this i believe".
the one yesterday had penn jillette (kind of my hero anyway) getting around there requirement for a positive assertion of faith, by saying he positivily believes there is no god.. anyway, it's now become my favorite essay.
here's the link with the text and a link to the audio.

Door to Door Atheists
by Gollum inother than the bad flashbacks of my going door to door, this is great.
directed at the mormans, but probably applies more to the dubs.
they just don't have a central location like the mormans.
