What an awesome well written piece Mathew. I really enjoy how you craft your narrative. Someday I hope to be able to sit across a table enjoying a cup of joe and talking with you in person. I believe at least on my end it would be enjoyable and I feel I would be a better person because of the conversation.

Great post - it's refreshing to read logical, rational beliefs clearly outlined. I'm an atheist ex-pat who lives in England and looks back on what's happening Stateside with horror. But not disbelief, because I grew up in Western North Carolina where religious fundamentalism was a creeping menace. I also like your focus on the importance of STEM, but in the UK it's now STEAM - A has been added for the arts. Science will fight ignorance's brain, but it'll be literature, history, art and philosophy that will destroy it's heart. Thanks for the posts!
