The Atheist’s Guide to Christmas: We do books too!

Unusually, I’m plugging a book rather than a move, The Atheists Guide to Christmas, an excellent and borderline bestselling volume penned by 42 Atheists and edited by the new poster girl of Atheism, Arianne Sherine is out in all good book shops now.

David Baddiel and I wrote an essay together for the book, on the question of why they aren’t any Atheist Movies. And then as soon as we had written it, bloody Ricky Gervais went and made one in THE INVENTION OF LYING.

But in any case, the essay, and the book (and the cause behind the book, 50% of all royalties go to the Terrence Higgins Trust) are all excellent. You can hear David and I talking about our piece here and buy the book from Amazon and anywhere else. Click on the jacket to be taken there….

    heaps of movies i’ve seen have an atheist message… the film doesn’t have to be direct about it to be classified as an atheist film

    Hi Sally – would love examples. Happy to be disproved, but an assertion does not evidence make, which is of course the core problem with most arguments for a god…
