God on Stephen Fry:
..
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
This is on the MSN website in the Entertainment section. The reader commentary at the bottom is going about 50-50 for and against him. Pretty good considering that's a general website.

How naive to assume that the word of God by God describing himself is an accurate representation of himself.
We're moderates, you know. We haven't even read the bible, but if we did, I doubt we'd take anything in it literally. Things have moved on. It's just about jesus now. That's all you need to know. Jesus. Feel free to send me a private message.

Oh, I think that day came quite a while ago. Atheists have an interest in all the bible, not just the 3 good verses that theists read over and over.
