Also, am I the only one who thinks Dave Chappelle does a better white man voice than most white men?

Baron von Turkeypants Soy un hombre muy honrado,
que me gusta lo mejor I'll tell you what isn't my favorite. The Stranger. He makes atheists look like assholes in that. Las mujeres no me faltan,
ni el dinero ni el amor Agreed. The Stranger just made me feel numb and empty upon finishing it... I felt like justice and value and sense were all just illusions. It made me sad. neutral

ProjectOmicron88 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I love that book, but I've never actually read any of the sequels. I probably should. Read it, and you'll see what I mean by "atheist literature". It presents the reader with a view of the universe that, contrary to what we'd all like to believe about existence, is extraordinarily silly and nonsensical. Douglas Adams himself was a self-described "radical atheist". I love Douglas Adams.

Les Adieux Yes, those are some great choices. Honestly, I think if someone proclaims themself an atheist, they have some general idea of what they're talking about. We don't need a bible. That's what Science class is for. wink I agree. No need for a big book of absolute truth. Now, a nice little collection of philosophical and scientific articles, essays refuting arguments for God, a few autobiographical essays detailing key aspects of individual atheists' lives, and a couple of "How To" papers on things like dealing with rabid Christians or suing public institutions that are hung up on religion, ranging from the oldest "atheist" documents we have to modern folks, that would be excellent. An atheist Bible, it would be, but one recognized for what it was: a collection of works from various genres of literature, all written exclusively by human beings for human beings, with a specific agenda. That would be cool.

I think any religious text is good literature for atheists. Really, truly, and honestly. I mean, if you actually sit down and read the Bible, for example, fully consider what it is saying, and don't end up an atheist, I think that would be pretty amazing.
For certain, my own path to atheism was greatly eased by the utter bulls*** that is religion and superstitious belief in the supernatural. If religion had been significantly more reasonable, I might still be in a church or believe in hocus pocus and fairy tales. Thank goodness for the ubiquitous insanity of religious texts.

I know exactly what you mean. I am surrounded by religious teaching all day at the school I go to and to be honest I feel that really seeing those religions in depth has given me even more of a reason to be an Atheist. I mean to really see and ask questions about these religions only to be given shady answers at best has really been revealing in my choice to become an Atheist.

55may55 I mean to really see and ask questions about these religions only to be given shady answers at best has really been revealing in my choice to become an Atheist. I'm glad that you can be encouraged by it. Just having an answer at all is often more than the religious can do. A solid, reasonable answer, not, "It's mysteeeeerious!"

I don't really have any Atheists Literature but I am currently reading a funny little book called "The Atheists bible".
I just got my hands on it today. If you can, I think it would be helpful to read not just books catering towards Atheism, but books catering towards theists who need to be assured that Atheists are wrong.
I plan to get a few in the future, but it is something to point out.

I'm not reading anything right now, but I adore Nietzsche. If he counts. o.o Dawkins is interesting as well.

I'll state that out of the 'New Atheist Movement' I REALLY love Sam Harris' work. The man is a genius, his two books are great, and I also tend to seek out his interviews since he does quite well in those.
