The following is a link to an article by Natalie Angier that appered in January 2001 titled, 'Confessions of a Lonely Atheist': Confessions (http://www.nytimes.com/library/magazine/home/20010114mag-atheism.html)
The article is about 10 pages long so you may want to print it out if it interests you.
The second article is about the Development of Paranormal Beliefs, this article is much shorter, about two pages but is also very interesting: Paranormal Beliefs (http://www.csicop.org/si/2004-03/belief.html)
In the same issue of the above magazine is another interesting article, by Susan Haack, titled: 'Point of Honor: On Science and Religion'.
Lastly, another article, again by Natalie Angier, appears in the Spring 2004 Issue of 'The American Scholar', Titled: 'My God Problem - and Theirs'. This is both an excellent and witty article. Unforuntely a web link is not available that I can find, but wanted to mention the article for those that may find it interesting and would take the effort to find it in some local library. Natalie is a well respected writer and won the Pulitzer Prize in 1991 for her New York Times science reporting.
