A family in Finland
I recently read "The God Delusion" by Richard Dawkins. Dawkins is a Professor of Science at Oxford University and is considered one of the preiminent intellectuals of our time. He is also passionate about atheism in a way that some people are passionate about religion. In The God Delusion he is very much aiming to persuade believers around to his point of view. For me this was the problem, as someone who has never believed in God I need no convincing that god does not exist, as for his target audience, its an uphill battle trying to convince religous types with rational arguements, people believe what they want to believe, in spite of the evidence.
