Favorite atheist personality?

Favorite atheist personality?
I've watched videos of atheists talking. It's what cemented my own atheism. I've watched The Atheist Experience, Aron Ra, Steve Shives, and others. Who do you guys like?

My favorite is probably TAE, though the full videos can be quite long. I actually prefer the youtube clips to listening to the full hour or so.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

TAE is quite good. Good place to hone up on 'on the fly' debate techniques.

Theoretical Bullshit is one of the best on YourTube.

His shredding of all the philosophical arguments for the existence of god are about as good as it gets.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

Well, my husband is my favorite. Trust me, he's quite the personality. As for famous atheists...well, I don't know. If I have to choose from only those who talk about it, I'd say Lawrence Krauss.

I'm somewhat of a fan of the late Christopher Hitchens.

I also enjoy the Atheist Experience and the Tinking Atheist.

I like the atheist experience. The crazies that call them are just so hilarious. And the hosts are very sharp.

I was initially (when I became an atheist) a fan of Hitchens. But as I got deeper into the discussion regarding gods, I found some of the YouTube atheists to just be better than any atheist personality I know of. A few of the best I know of are: TheoreticalBullshit (a soap op. actor), KnownNoMore (guy knows his shit), SisyphusRedeemed (he's an actual professional philosopher and professor), CheekyVimto08 (philosophy student like me), Martymer81 (physicist), among others.

I'm in love with Tim Minchin. No, really. Angel

I want a Tim stuffed animal. My favorite toy is now named after him and I bought myself a black eyeliner. Tim madness!
