Dan is most well known for his book, Losing Faith in Faith� from Preacher to Atheist.:

Barker describes the intellectual and psychological struggle required to move from fundamentalism to freethought. Sections on biblical morality, the historicity of Jesus, bible contradictions, the unbelievable resurrection, and much more. This book is an arsenal for skeptics and a direct challenge to believers.� - <a href="http://www.ffrf.org/books/lfif.html" target="_blank">http://www.ffrf.org/books/lfif.html</a>

By work, do you mean get some type of payment? If so then the answer is no. If by work you mean that I post information that other people may have an interest in listening to, than I assume I work for them.

I recognize this was my first post here so it could come off as spam but that is not who I am by any stretch of the imagination. I am an activist, and I take interest in relating and conveying any type of pertinent information to the atheist community and those who frequent it. I can't wait to jump into the other forums and get my feet wet, many of the people here already know me as a big supporter of the Atheist Network. But I support among others American Atheists, <a href="http://www.anti-religions.org" target="_blank">www.anti-religions.org</a> (and their lawsuit against the Vatican), and many others who I wouldn't go into naming at the time.

I know your question was more simple than my answer but I figured it would be a good time to expand as I don't want you to think I'm a spammer. You are familiar with the fact that the Atheist Network and Infidel Guy have a good realtionship with II, aren't you? Take a look at their home page: <a href="http://www.infidels.org/index.shtml" target="_blank">http://www.infidels.org/index.shtml</a>

In Reason,

Welcome already!

And thanks for the Heads-Up, unfortunately, 8 PM EST, November 13, 2002 = 02:00 CET, November 14, 2002 (I think, I often have trouble with those AM/PM's). Could I listen to it at another time?

Yes, if I'm not mistaken you can go to <a href="http://www.infidelguy.com" target="_blank">www.infidelguy.com</a> after the show and login for a free name (no spam), and then you will always be able to listen to his most recent show until the next one is available. You could proably email him if you have problems.
