ME ...

I will add that Robert G. Ingersoll, Bertrand Russell, Carl Sagan are tops on my list

I’m not sure about favorite, maybe Lawrence Krauss or Brian Cox, but funniest has to be Jim Jeffries. I know he’s a misogynist and I shouldn’t like him on principal but damn he’s funny as shit.

Love jim jeffries too...misogyny??? nooooo! please tell me it isn't so

David Attenborough. "It never really occurred to me to believe in God" sums up my own atheism perfectly.

Alfred Jarry (pataphysicist extraordinaire) of course he took the piss out of religion without wasting time on analysis. Can't remember the character in, in one of his books. who when challenged on commitment to religion stated "I am God". And Jarry's mathematical definition... "God is the tangential point between zero and infinity".

George Carlin🙂

Bertrand Russell
His books literally changed my life

Me too. Me too.

So many to choose from, but Jonathan Miller is pretty awesome.

George Carlin as someone else also stated.

The best at arguing against religion were Hitch and Sam Harris, followed by Lawrence Krause and Matt Dillahunty.

Assuming we're talking about famous people/celebrities (e.g., not "myself" ), probably Penn Jillette. Also Katherine Hepburn, Frank Zappa, and Charlie Chaplin.
