(March 16, 2014 at 2:59 pm)StuW Wrote: Any of Bart Erhman's books. I'm currently reading "What do you do with a chocolate Jesus - Thomas Quinn"

I really enjoyed Ehrman's Lost Christianities, I'd recommend that one for sure.

I know a lot of people don't think very highly of Dawkins' God Delusion, but I like his writing style. I'd recommend his books on science (The Greatest Show on Earth, especially) and if you like his style read The God Delusion.

I quite enjoy Victor Stenger's book God the Failed Hypothesis, and I have a second one of his that I'm planning on reading... soon...

I'm also planning on reading Bertrand Russell's Why I am Not A Christian soon, too. Haven't read it yet, though.

Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.
