Has anyone read "A Manual for Creating Atheists" by Peter Boghossian? .. I'm about halfway through it now and I am excited to try out some of the techniques he lays out in the book. If I'm not mistaken, this is the book Anthony Magnabosco used to get...

I have a Street Epistemology youtube channel. I hope it helps people to learn the method. We could use more empathic, active listeners in this world.
