"Coming Out" as an Atheist -

I use the phrase "Coming Out" because in many ways coming out as an Atheist is very similar to coming out as gay. It really depends on the types of people that make up your family but I am sure there are some people for whom coming out as an atheist would actually be harder then coming out as gay. I seem to remember someone making a joke about telling your parents you are an atheist so that you can say that you were just kidding and that you were just gay.

See this video for the reaction that young ex-Catholic got when he came out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P8Aq00yJSxo

How I Became an Atheist -

This vid describes my transition from a fundamentalist Baptist up bringing to my current Atheistic world view. I hope that those struggling with the same questions might hear my story and take heart that they are not alone and that the logical conclusion that you are struggling against is not as bleak as you may think.

I mention several books here are links:

Being a comparison between Theist Morality and Atheist Morality, this video discusses the various moral precepts that we can all agree on and then delves into the major areas of disagreement.

I couldn't find good resources on the internet for where our ethics come from so here are some books I recommend that discuss the subject and point to other resources in their bibliographies.
