It's the book I read when my religion prof told us he was't going to cover atheism in Intro to Religion because it's an irrational position. I found out it isn't.
This was the first book on atheism I ever read - kind of went over my head as a 16 year old, but I thought it was interesting enough to continue researching the concept of atheism. I just reread it recently and enjoyed it.
And lol about your professor.
Teenaged X-Files obsession + Bermuda Triangle episode + Self-led school research project = Atheist.
