description: Self-described atheist Bice penned these newspaper columns in an effort to promote atheism, skepticism, and rationalism in American society and to protest the increasing inroads of religiosity into American politics. The collected essays range from straightforward defenses of atheism and attacks on the irrationality of religious belief, through discussion of the superiority of science over religion, through consideration of atheist rationalist perspectives on current political debates such as gay marriage and the Iraq War.
