You. Have. Got. To. Read. This: Natalie Angier's speech to the Center for Inquiry, with her take on atheism and raising a godless child.

Plus, my wife's a Catholic. So I don't have it quite so easy when telling my kids these kind of things. I'm trying to lead by example, and I'm hoping that when they come to us with questions, they'll see my side.
