10 Myths & Truths about Atheism
As always, Mr. Harris seems to be able to hit the proverbial nail on the head with his direct viewpoint. 10 MYTHS — AND 10 TRUTHS — ABOUT ATHEISM By Sam Harris When scientists don’t know something — like why the universe came into being or how the first self-replicating molecules formed — they admit it.

Truthiness on Wikiality
If you pan to the right you’ll see a number of things littered along my sidebar. Among them is a list of things I posted in the “About Me” section of my profile. Close to the end of my list you will note that I am a Wikiality Endorser.

Wishes come true...(updates)
Alright, I said I’d get back to you on my progress towards making some of my wishes come true. Things are moving along quite nicely. Made it back out to California for some very promising business with regards to relocating. I feel very good about the possibilities I am looking at and feel that my life is moving in the direction I have needed it to for a very long time. As for my studies...

One illustration of a rational perspective...
In my adventures over the Internet I have come upon a few very interesting sites, I really wanted to share. The first: TMP Online As I am constantly searching for new and ever increasingly valid viewpoints on rational perspectives in favor of atheism I found this to be solidly logical in it’s approach. No preaching or agendas, just pure logical thought processes being utilized to help...
