Who is the best living spokesman for atheism?
If I overlooked your favorites in my poll, please add their names to the thread.
Thanks.
There's no single person who I can say I agree with all the time about things. Richard Dawkins is definitely up there as one of my favourites, but I tend to like listening to comedians talk about atheism more than scientists.
Ricky Gervais, Steve Merchant and Karl Pilkington make fun of religion loads of times in their podcasts and Ricky Gervais definitely identifies himself as being atheist so he will definitely be up there.
David Mitchell does some really good comedy about religion but I don't know if he strictly identifies as being an atheist.
I've been getting more into Stephan Molyneux who's an atheist philosopher but there's many points I disagree with about what he says.
Overall probably Ricky Gervais or Richard Dawkins.
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.
