Interview with an Atheist

[abaris]

I find myself enjoying their work, and I'm even comfortable with disagreeing with them, but the man in this video is more my speed on all levels. I would prefer to see more of the likes of Neil.

These guys usually are, since they didn't turn atheism into a profession.

I never read anything by Harris, Dawkins or Hitchens. I'm not interested in atheism being explained to me, since I already reached that point under my own steam. The reason why I like Dawkins isn't so much his atheism but his usual tongue in cheek attitude. The reasons why I dislike Harris are his political essays, his taking himself to seriously and his Ivory Tower attitude that's akin to preaching to the quire. Also he's too much of a missionary for my liking. And I gladly extend my general contempt of missionaries to atheists as well, if the shoe fits.
