Yes, I swiped this from Richard Dawkins’s website (thanks, RD!), but I had to pass it along to those readers who missed it. This is a collection of ten articles about atheism by Greta Christina, who has previously been below my radar. Christina is a free-lance writer, an atheist, and a lesbian who writes a lot about sex and sex workers. (Her blog is here.) And she’s an eloquent voice for reason. I spent a lovely two hours last night reading these pieces, which are clear, witty, and trenchant — nourishing fodder for atheists. Print them out and enjoy.

Correction: some readers have pointed out that Ms. Christina is not lesbian but bisexual (I’d assumed the former since she’s married to another woman.) My bad.
Greta’s great–forceful, articulate, and persuasive. She invites one and all to friend her on Facebook, which helps to spread the word of reason.
I had not read her essays before, but I really like the ones I’m reading now. Thanks for the link.
I’ve been a fan of Christina’s for a while now- I thought she was well known.
(Slight correction- she’s bi.)
Anyone who has not been reading Greta has been missing out on one of the best writers in the atheist blogosphere. She’s terrific.
(She’s also a bisexual (not lesbian) woman married to another woman–but never mind.)
Crap; should have read Abbie’s comment above. My bad.
I’ve been following Greta for a couple of years now.
I think her articles on dealing with death are some of the best I’ve ever seen.
