"Moses"?
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

I'm an atheist, and I write stories, thus making me an author. So, myself.

Sam "Ben Fucking Stiller" Harris. His debate against william lane craig really had some good points. although people seem to say he lost it I really thought he did a good job
If I die and god is real, im so screwed.

For the written word, I think Dawkins' The God Delusion is the best book out there. For debates and personal appearances, no one beats Hitch.

Hitchens is very charismatic. Fun as a spectator.

A corollary to this thread would be: who is your favorite Christian apologist? By "favorite" I mean the one who doesn't condescend and at least tries to meet atheist objections with some semblance of logic and reason. I like Timothy Keller, not because I agree with him (his entire premise in his book "Reason for God" is a variation of the god of the gaps argument), but because he at least acknowledges that atheists raise some good questions that can not - and should not - be ignored.
