They are what made me more active as an atheist at least, in recent times. They also taught me a lot about how bad religion really is(but mostly Harris, since I didn't really read the other guys' books much). Hitch is surely to be missed, though, and Dawkins is much regarded as the most famous atheist on the planet. Dennett, I don't know much about, but the fact that he's a philosopher is a definite plus for me.

I think I'd like a summary of the video is what I think.

Just for anyone who doesn't have the time either, the Four Horsemen of the Non-Apocalypse are:

Christopher Hitchens (a author, literary critic, and journalist, born British but now a U.S. citizen) took part in the The Great God Debate and wrote God Is Not Great: How Religion Poisons Everything.  He died a couple years ago.

Sam Harris is a U.S. neuroscientist and philosopher.  He wrote: The End of Faith.

Richard Dawkins is a British evolutionary biologist and wrote a whole number of popular science books including the The Selfish Gene.  He also wrote The God Delusion.

Daniel Dennett is an American cognitive scientist and a philosopher.  He wrote Darwin's Dangerous Idea in which he contends that morality is the product of evolution.

All four are not only atheists, but think that religion is harmful.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
