According to the Washington Post, one in four americans do not read a single book in a year. Those that did read, mostly religious and pop fiction books were the choice.

So, I decided to make a New Year’s Resolution: Read one hardcore Non-Fiction book a week for one year. But to do so I’ll need some help.

First, I’ll need book suggestions, I don’t want to waste my time reading a bunch of stupid books (Deepak Chopra need not apply).
Secondly, I’ll need answers to some of the harder concepts I’ll more than likely find in these books, seeing as how books do not talk back.
And Third, I may need you to prod me on to keep going. 52 non-fiction books is a lot of dry material.

And, as per usual, I’ll still be going to class, working full-time, and writing on my website.

Just a little story about how I got to Atheism/Agnosticism. Really for myself more than anyone else.It’s kinda long, but I couldn’t compress the story any more without losing some of the points I was trying to make.

Okay, so the idea of a day dedicated to a group of presidents, a day of independence, or a fat guy in a red suit may sound like a good idea but I hear you on national Malaria day. A day dedicated to a killer disease? What’s wrong with people?

The answer to the second question is: plenty. However, I’m kicking it off early by pointing everyone to Robert Bertrand’s Malaria day donation page. $10 can save several people from malaria related illness, or even death. So check it out at: http://www.firstgiving.com/malarianomorecharity
