I remember getting in trouble for reading those under the desk when I was at school. My English teacher was delighted I was obsessively trying to find out what happened but bummed that I was ignoring her.
One of my top 5 childhood kids books.

Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken."

Penn jillette is pretty funny. Plus the interview he did with that douchebag piers Morgan was funny.
I watched alot of Dan Barker when I was first reading and learning about atheism and religion. He's awesome because he used to be a super religious person, so he has both perspectives.
Obviously Dawkins is the shit.
Seth MacFarlane is awesome.
