View a 45-minute video of an atheist pep-talk I delivered at Ohio State on April 21, 2007. I called this rally 10 Reasons America is Approaching a Golden Age of Atheism.

This is my own cover version of the last charted hit of Gentleman Jim Reeves. This song was written by Harlan Howard and wasn't released by RCA until 1984, twenty years after Reeves' death in an airplane crash. While neither I, nor anyone else, can ever match Reeves' performance, I hope I can do the song justice in his memory.

"Many people have traveled this world with different dreams, purposes and aspirations. Many are masters, teachers, inventors and followers. They were all sent by the creator of the universe to achieve one just course; “global peace and unification.” But this course cannot be achieved without unconditional love, which possesses the magical powers of the Divine for transformation. When the human race embraces love unconditional, then the lost will be found, the naked will be clothed, the hungry will be fed, the bombs will be destroyed and there will be peace and unity which will make us all to speak one language, “LOVE”. Let love abide" ~ Philip Brown
Thanks for adding me. I'm also a WV boy (born and raised in the Charleston area until 2000) but now living in St. Louis, MO. Atheist Universe is one of, if not the, best books I've read on atheism to date. It's the book I'd recommend any fence-sitters read first before diving into Harris, Hitchens, or Dawkins. Excellent work; keep it up!
Hey! Great page you've got here. Check out this new blog I posted today; 'Christian Humility and Dignity/Proving a negative to a faith-head', as well as music and videos. One of my chief goals as a thinker and artist is proving that creativity is not God-given or magical/mysterious impossibly convoluted; beyond human understanding. Hope you take an interest in the music on my page:)
Hi David: Thanks for adding me. I loved your book and the interview with an atheist CD. I'm well and getting better daily. Your book was just the right medicine for my troubled mind at just the right time. Living without the mental delusion of Christianity is much more fulfilling and meaningful than a life suffering through the tired ancient Jesus superstition. Ayn Rand's argument against a creator consciousness, I found to be especially useful. My version of her argument I offer up for the comments section. ************************ To believe that a theistic creator deity exists and is responsible for reality, one must think the deity a primordial consciousness that wished reality to instantiate. Further, a theism/creationism believer must believe their deity was in some timeless fashion akin to "before" existence alone in a timeless, non-spatial, void without anything or any knowledge, alone as a consciousness, conscious of nothing or only itself. But this is categorically impossible, for to be conscious is to be aware of reality, and meta-consciousness must necessarily rest upon a foundation of awareness. That consciousness is awareness of reality is indisputable. Without reality there can be no awareness; without awareness there can be no consciousness. Consequently, there could not have been a primordial consciousness responsible for causing reality to obtain. Lacking a valid or sound concept of "creator", all theistic or deistic religions crumble to incoherent nonsense.
"Unconventional is a wonderful story full of heart, humor, and what it means to truly be successful. An A+ novel for the keeper shelf. " - Gemma Halliday, award-winning author
We, the humankind, must always keep in mind that, united we stand and prosper, but divided, we have been falling for many, many years. - - Let us learn how to unite and work together, let us learn how to transform the information offered on our website, into action, in order to solve humanity’s major problems, One Problem, at a time. - - Ranking number 1, on top of our list of major problems obviously is the Global Warming.
We must also keep in mind that silence solves nothing, it never has, and it never will. Our silence encourages more violence and corruption at all levels of society, all over the world, and helps to defeat and silence the peaceful voices of reason and common sense. - It is our civic duty and moral obligation, to get involved and never be silent, to solve our many problems, by simply casting the light of truth and exposing the source of the problem, followed by enlightening educational measures to solve the problem through a peaceful conflict resolution.
There are only 2 ways of spreading the light of truth and hope, either to be the source of light, truth and hope, The Projector, or be The Mirror, that spreads and reflects the light of truth and hope to others, which one are you? - - And next time you see the sweet little angels, our children, running around, stop and think for a minute, think about what kind of polluted Planet Earth we are leaving behind for them.
Please visit The Tree Huggers of America’s website and learn about what we can all do, right now, together to ensure having a sustainable green future.
I'll be writing a lot today. I hope to have something significant written before the weekend is over. I'll let you know how it goes. I wonder if anyone has ever written a successful book on the subject with no formal education.
