I refer people to The Speculist and FastForward Radio all the time, on YouTube, where I hang out. Currently DutchessMaria and I have some irritating atheist friends, who know everything. You might want to study them. Often I have wished someone from The Speculist would come be a hero. I know you are busy, and YouTube is full of hedgehogs, but there is some glory in it. You get to hurl virtual tomatoes back at them.
