A Bright Idea for Atheists
by Rob - April 4th, 2007.Filed under: Uncategorized.
Today’s edition — Wednesday, April 4, 2007 — of The Ottawa Citizen contains an op-ed piece by Robert J. Sawyer on atheism and the Modern Skeptical Movement, which the paper is calling “Unhealthy Skepticism” (my original title was “A Bright Idea for Atheists”). It takes up most of a page (page 17).
The Ottawa Citizen is the largest circulation newspaper in Canada’s capital city; an op-ed piece is an opinion article that appears opposite the editorial, and is written by someone other than the newspaper’s usual staff.
My piece is an expansion of the comments I made at the grand opening of the Centre for Inquiry, Ontario.
The full text of the article is online here.
