About Me

I'm Hemant, the Friendly Atheist. I'm 24. I blog at www.friendlyatheist.com.

I'm vegetarian. I enjoy public speaking. My life is written on notecards. I will eventually be on Survivor.

I work with a group called the Secular Student Alliance (www.secularstudents.org).

This one time, I (apparently) "sold my soul on eBay." As a result, I went to many churches around the country and wrote about my experiences.
