Title: Hi, I'm Switch
Post by: Switch89 on October 21, 2007, 06:20:12 AM
Hi Everybody! Glad to be here! I found this forum via a friend on "Why Won't God Heal Amputees" Forum. Anyway, I've been an atheist for about six months or so, I'm extremely interested in evolution, and I'm a big Richard Dawkins fan (of course). Right now, I've been trying to learn more about Abiogenesis, but I guess I shouldn't go into that too much. I own a blog that rebutts creationist claims, some of you might be interested in visiting it. It's in my signature : )

VVV

Cheers!

Hola. Evolution you say? [Mr. Burns]Excellent[/Mr. Burns].

As for abiogenesis, if you haven't checked it out already, Robert Hazen has a good book from a researcher's perspective on the field called Genesis: The Quest for Life's Origin.

I'm sure L remembers me from the "Why Won't God Heal Amputees" Forum. Anyway, I've now written a book called "Atheism and Naturalism (http://www.lulu.com/content/paperback-book/atheism-and-naturalism/6307598)".

You can read excerpts here (http://www.godriddance.com/book.php).

Also, on May 21 I'll be appearing on the infidel guy show.

Welcome, sounds just like me.  Atheist for 9 months, and I've been sucking in whatever science I can understand, much of it with a biology focus, as that's where a lot of creationist misunderstanding comes from.  I don't have a blog, though, so you've got me beat.   :D

Woah.  See, I know what happened.  He just posted in philosophy, and I assumed he must have posted first in introductions, so I clicked his username and went from there.  Was wondering how he'd write a book after only being an atheist for 6 months.  Ambitious, to say the least.

Ugh, the embarrassment.

Hi again Switch.

I merged this with your old introduction thread since PipeBox had found it recently :)

Congratulations on your book.
