"Conversion" to atheism
Submitted by askegg on June 11, 2007 - 12:53am.Hi all,
Earlier this year I attended a conference that spread over three days, so I had sometime to think things over during the evenings. Since my religious beliefs were on my mind after reading "The God Delusion", "A Letter to a Christian Nation", "Demon Haunted World", and "The End of Faith" I decided to jot down my progress through various religious belief systems.
It started as a bunch of dot points and progressed into a slide show. A few animations and some music were added and the result was posted on YouTube (my first post there ever).
The result has seen some modest popularity, for which I am truly surprised. What I did not count on was the different social and religious climates around the world. I was not really prepared for how atheists were treated, especially in the USA.
