with consideration also given to different types of atheist and
agnostic.

Reasons to place the defense of atheism high in one's list of priorities. http://www.infidels.org/library/modern/theodore_drange/defending.html (offsite) "Can You Believe Things at Will?" A study of doxastic voluntarism, the view that people can directly self-induce a belief by an act of will, and related issues. The claims that people do such a thing frequently, that it is rational to do it, and that atheists are culpable for their nonbelief are strongly attacked. http://home.earthlink.net/~writetdrange/beliefatwill.html |
