I read the whole bible in three years word for word, and decided I didn’t like God of the bible and didn’t want to live forever under his rule...

Dan Barker’s “godless” needs to be made into a film or documentary of some kind. It’s that good. He’s an extremely talented writer.

I'm an atheist. A hardcore atheist. But sometimes I read the bible. It's an interesting story book but I can't understand how anyone can believe that it's true

[@breeze787]

Can you imagine if Dan Barker was still a Christian we as an Atheist group would have to face him? Compared to him us Atheist would really seem angry and irritable while he's so funny and likable.

Dan Barker is smart as hell. No pun intended.

I have since bought his book "The Most Unpleasant Character in all Fiction" I love it.. He is spot on throughout the book. He is my hero!

[@patbrennan6572]

it's ok to read the bible but the problem starts when you live by it.

A bit of a description of the nature of Mr. B's talk would be usefull.
