Your turn.
Various individuals convinced me of atheism:
1) Professor Richard Dawkins in his The God Delusion, especially, Dawnkin's description of Professor Bertrand Russell's orbiting teapot analogy.
2) Professor Bart Ehrman -- various talks and articles.
3) Realization that most elite scientists and philosophers are atheistic.
4) The virtual absence of Christian fundamentalism with the Academy.
