"I believe that there is no God," Penn Jillette, of Penn and Teller, told the world on NPR this morning. Ben told me about it, and I dug up the essay on the radio station's web site. It's worth a read or a listen. Atheism is not something that gets a lot of airing in national public forums. I'm sure NPR will draw flack from the many people who feel that those lacking belief are are mentally flawed and morally condemned.

Actually the thing they'll hate more than his lack of belief is his affirmative belief in the non-existence of God. There's a difference, one he goes into. In fact, the "This I believe" forum requires an affirmative statement. You can't say, "I don't believe blank." Semantics I know...
