God-free in Tennessee: Hitch, orator of the mind

"At the Global Atheist Convention in Melbourne, Richard Dawkins offered a tribute to Christopher Hitchens"

Richard Dawkins’ Eulogy for Christopher Hitchens

Some Tennesseans...

"are simply unable to imagine rejecting the literal authority of the Bible. The most they can conjure up, straining until they are red in the face, is a man who is in error about the meaning of this or that text. Thus one accused of heresy among them is like one accused of boiling his grandmother to make soap in Maryland." -H.L. Mencken, Dayton TN 1925

And that's still true of some. Of many. But not all. There's another Tennessee, so here's a site for some other Tennesseans - and anyone else, anywhere else, who is happy to be god-free.
