Me and My Imaginary Friend

I don't consider myself an atheist, but this essay from Penn Jillette (NPR : There Is No God) is very provocative.

"I have faith, I believe this in my heart and nothing you can say or do can shake my faith." That's just a long-winded religious way to say, "shut up,"

"How I was brought up and my imaginary friend means more to me than anything you can ever say or do." So, believing there is no God lets me be proven wrong and that's always fun. It means I'm learning something.
