A courageous philosopher

I was still TBM when I read his book "God is Not Great".
I opened it expecting self-justifying fallacy, hostility, sarcasm, and mockery. As a TBM I had a sterotypically dogmatic sterotype of atheists, which his book dispelled.

sad =( he was key in helping me on my way out of mormonism. he will be missed.

it's funny to read people's comments on facebook like "RIP" and addressing him as "you" as if he was still alive and reading the comments (or simply "resting in peace") ;) was he buried or cremated?

How long before we see stories of his deathbed conversion?

In the end, he was a fine (and public) example of how atheists face death.
