About me
I'm a husband, and a father.
I'm a soccer dad. I'm one of THOSE soccer dads.
I work in IT, therefore I'm a geek. But not that big of a geek, I prefer Windows.
I'm a former college athlete slowly realizing that those days are over.
I'm a father of a future college athlete, who reminds me that former athletes aren't that cool.
I'm a race fan. Any kind of racing; NASCAR, F1, Supercross, Tour de France, Track and Field, Go Karts, Hot Wheels. If it races, I'm a fan.
Why I use Clipmarks
I'm a Google Reader junkie. I go there first. There are times when I want to save something, but I don't like the way it has to be done in Reader. I thought Google Notebook would do the trick, but after giving Clipmarks a try, I decided to go with it.
I really like the post to a blog feature.

POPSSam Harris: Yahweh Belongs on the Scrapheap of Mythology

by laceym  3-21-2007    4
  I’d like to begin this exchange by making the observation that “atheist” is a term that should not even exist. We do not, after all, have a name for a person who does not believe in Zeus or Thor. In fact, we are all “atheists” with respect to Zeus and Thor and the thousands of other dead gods that now lie upon the scrapheap of mythology. ... Did someone around the time of Constantine discover that the pagan gods do not actually exist, while the biblical God does? Of course not. There are thousands of gods that were once worshipped with absolute conviction by men and women like ourselves, and yet we all now agree that they are rightly dead. An “atheist” is simply someone who thinks that the God of Abraham should be buried with the rest of these imaginary friends. I am quite sure that we need only use words like “reason,” “common sense,” “evidence,” and “intellectual honesty” to do the job.

 Moderate believers give cover to religious fanatics -- and are every bit as delusional.
