I'd really really like to. As soon as he mentioned his MySpace deal on Penn Jillette's radio show, I went on and did that, but I just haven't been able to get to a book store at all lately.

I'm probably gonna snag it online next month when I'm not broke.

You know, and I don't mean this in an egotistical way, but it seems that every book on Atheism that I try to read just tells me what I already know. The only rememberable this that I learned was clever classification terms such as "the idea that because so many people believe it makes it true is called Democratic Reality in that truth can be chosen by vote." That I thought interesting, but I donno. Maybe I just haven't read any good ones.

As for all of you that like anti-religion-ish movies with a laugh. I highly recomend Monty Python's Life of Brian(so awsome) 3nodding .

That movie was banned by the Catholic Church, which made it even more popular. lol

Back to the ages of power, it's time for us to learn
One day it's far too late, too late for a return



An interesting read, you say? I may just check it out. I haven't read any good books lately.


Arise from the cower, from the day on we have learned
It's high time to break the spell, that's chaining up the world

I've read it. I liked it a lot... in some ways, its basically a manual for how to defend atheism in a scientific and logical manor. Much of it wasn't new to me, but Dawkin's style is entertaining enough.
