August Berkshire of Minnesota Atheists (and author of 18 Unconvincing Arguments for God) is in the media for the second time in a week!
You can see his most recent letter-to-the-editor in the new issue of Time magazine:
Religious believers often cite feeling God’s presence as proof of his existence. Now people point to Teresa’s lack of feeling the presence of Jesus as proof of God’s existence. These people note her courage in persevering despite severe doubts. If she had been even more courageous, she would have admitted she was an atheist. Helping the poor without a belief in a heavenly reward is one of the greatest aspects of secular humanism.

Well said! And in a national magazine, no less!
