Remembering Allan Glenn

This is the anniversary month of skeptic Allan Glenn's passing. This time last year, everyone - believers and skeptics alike, gathered together in their homes and through the Internet, and mourned for him, appreciating everything that he did in his life. Allan fought cystic fibrosis for years, and lived an amazing love story with his fiance Jessica as he made his mark on the skeptic community. I've never had the honour to talk to a more amazing person, completely full of life and sense of humour.

On the Infidel Guy show, we hosted a memorial of Allan the night of his death. Everyone - Reggie, activist Janice Rael, strangers and friends, and even Pastor Gene Co0k, all expressed their sorrow at Allan's passing. Things like this always make me realize how trivial our daily arguing back and forth can be.

He was a great guy, I hope Jessica is doing well.

Actually, Pastor C00k used it as a jumping point to rally against atheism.

Other than that, Laz, Thanks for reminding me. His website, FSTDT, lives on as a testament to his humor and good will.
