Why I am an Agnostic Atheist - Document complete and attached

Why I am an Agnostic Atheist - Document complete and attached
Well I just finished my document today which totals 34 total pages outside of the cover page/table of contents.

I have attached it as some of you wanted to read it and I hope it is beneficial to any lurkers etc who come here as well. It pretty much represents the last five months of my life/investigation where I just started becoming an atheist this summer and up to now.

I already know one criticism of it may be is I did not go as in depth on certain things as some people may have liked. Honestly I also did not want to have to start putting sources in and essentially writing a book. This document is something I intend on keeping with me and probably expanding/editing potentially for the rest of my life.

Feel free to take whatever you want out of this document and use it in whatever way you want. The point for me isn't to get credit but to help and spread the information around. If it wasn't for forums like these etc getting to this point would have been a lot harder so a big thanks to you guys on here as well ^_^.

I downloaded your essay and read through it fairly quickly (I'll take a closer look when I have more time). Pretty good I thought.

On page 15 you wrote about the history of the Old Testament - I'm no scholar and have read only popular books on the subject, but I got a lot of help from Richard Friedman's "Who Wrote The Bible?" available here:

Been there, done that, now there is unholy tine:

Zero-state morality, dual-state identity, and vector atheism. Of course, I cheated. Devil

What is good, seeing the thinking going on. 34 pages is a read. Wink

RE: Why I am an Agnostic Atheist - Document complete and attached
I am pretty sure the score is going to be evened nicely. It literally would have taken me hours upon hours to explain that to each person I want to talk to. This document is such a time saver and although I have realized some things that I left out I think it is a pretty good dose of whats going on for me.

I appreciate the feedback and those of you who read it so far Smile
