"Dr Tyson is just such an engaging and charismatic speaker. He is this generation's Carl Sagan. And we need someone like him speaking now more than ever"
doubtingSteve replied to Diane's discussion 'Have you actually read the Bible?'"I read quite a lot of it as a teenager when I firmly believed it was divinely inspired. But I haven't even owned one in decades.
I recently read Jesus, Interrupted out of curiosity and that's been as close to reading the bible…"
doubtingSteve commented on John Markos O'Neill's blog post 'Poll for atheists'"Until the scientific community can completely explain why religion is central to so many people, I think you might want to consider an alternative approach. Religion seems to naturally fulfill a basic human need. How it has evolved from that…"
Shamari liked doubtingSteve's blog post Sumerians look on in confusion as Christian god creates the worlddoubtingSteve replied to David's discussion 'What is the Meaning of Life to an Atheist'"as George Carlin put it, the meaning of life for humans was to bring plastic into the world"
doubtingSteve commented on Doug Reardon's blog post 'The brain of the true believer.'"I strongly feel there are too many folks who don't want to be skeptic, and would rather have a perceived more knowledgeable person (charismatic healer) make decisions and think for them. Now we have some initial scientific proof this is the…"
doubtingSteve replied to doubtingSteve's discussion 'boobquake'"it saddens me, but I believe the world's major religions are going though perhaps another Great Awakening. I wish is was only a death throw, similar to the Tea Baggers movement being nothing more than Racism's death throw here in America."

doubtingSteve commented on Ashley Will's blog post 'Facebook Mistake...Christmas :-('"I feel your pain. 20 years ago (I was 23), my dad asked me at dinner if I still was a Christian, and I told him that no, I am an agnostic.

- Ardent Atheist quiz result: 75%
You are an atheist, pure and simple. You think God is just one big lie, and consider religious people to be both annoying and beneath you. Ardent atheists will argue tooth and claw for their position, and have no truck with people that won't listen. You think being an atheist is the only way to lead an honest life, and see no reason to accept the pleas of faith. Ardent atheists are the backbone of atheism. Be proud.

Any Warren Zevon fans here?
Long before I thought of such lofty concepts, I was a Warren fan. Now, even more than before, I listen to Warren.
