Ok. He's trying to get the atheists to come out of the closet which amuses me. I mean, I agree, there is power in numbers and visibility, but it's still pretty funny.
It just struck me that people who really need to read the book are the ones who would never ever pick it up. I hope I'm wrong.
Personally, I do have faith (I'm a pagan) but I don't expect my personal experience to convince anybody else of anything. I think I also have a different definition of deity than does wider society. Deity as defined by Einstein might work but it's still not quite what I believe.
