| Introduction | I grew up in Lyndhurst,NJ and attended Queen of Peace H.S. where the incoherence and hypocracy of christianity was clearly evident. I was able to test and expand my outlook relative to other religions and spiritual viewpoints at Middlebury College where I recieved a BA Economics in 1981. I was then awarded a Graduate Assistantship at Syracuse Univ. and obtained an MBA in Logistics in 1985. I have 27 years of executive experience and currently own a small logistics firm in Wayne, NJ. I am a past president and current board member of the Traffic Club of New York. Over the past 20 years I have refined my views on Atheism and explored many books and periodicals on the issues of god, religion, cosmology, and evolutionary psychology/biology. I am a life member of American Atheists and have membership in various other freethought organizations. Since 1998 I have attended many atheist and freethought events. I have also traveled the world including business and personal trips to Japan, China, Australia, South Africa, Zambia, Morocco, Israel, and throughout Europe and North America. This blog is the next step in my exploration of atheism. |
