Since you are a serious atheist now, how about typing up a synopsis for your less-than-serious brothers in arms?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Essence...ristianity

Wikipedia Wrote:The book is often considered a classic of humanism and the author's magnum opus. Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels were strongly influenced by the book, although they criticised Feuerbach for his inconsistent espousal of materialism. Feuerbach's theory of alienation would later be used by Marx in his theory of alienation. Max Stirner directed his The Ego And Its Own against it. Rather than simply a polemic, Stirner's work uses Feuerbach's idea of God as a human abstraction as the basis of his critique of Feuerbach. Although Stirner's book is often not understood within its context, it is structured as a response to Feuerbach.

You should read the God Delusion by Richard Dawkins-now that's fascinating

That explains all the kneeling practice they do and the glory hole booths. I guess it's all just a prelude to the altar boy main event?
