A brief writeup on the convention (that doesn’t do it justice) and a video (that doesn’t do it justice) was seen on Good Morning America Weekend Edition this morning.

Seems like ABC is unsure which approach to take when reporting on the rise of atheism. The report seemed….tentative, if you see what I mean.

Still, all good publicity. Hopefully there will be more.

How unfortunate that the avid war hawk Christopher Hitchens is the one “representing” atheists on national television.

Still, I’m happy to see a rising profile for non-belief.

Your link doesn’t work. Try this one.

It has the evil hyphenated weasel word:

Congress has its first self-proclaimed atheist, Rep. Pete Stark

I wouldn’t say “tentative.” It’s neutral, but brief, and I think that’s fair. But I agree ABC seems like it would be unsure how to write a longer article.
