    Has anything shaken your choice of atheism?

    You are right actually, My post was a little bit over the mark for what i wanted to say.

Here is a man with conviction and views...

    Good books on agnosticism

    check out Eric Reitan's "is god a delusion?" (I recommend not just for agnostics, but anyway who is truly looking for truth) He is a christian however he has written a great book with accounts from both points of view. He not only blasts organised religion for its foray into science and its...
