At the risk of dragging this way off topic:
Atheism is every bit as much a faith Christianity.
I disagree.
You have faith that no God exists, which is something that you can't prove, and I have faith that God does exist which is something I can't prove.
I think you are using the word "faith" wrongly here. I don't have faith that god does not exist, I simply lack the faith that he does. Not having faith in [A] does not equal having faith in [not A].
Back on topic: I remember buying the trilogy (for myself to read) and the lady at the till charged me full price for them. I mentioned the "3 for 2" deal that was advertised throughout the store, and she said "That's on adult fiction. These are kids books" which made me feel a bit embarrassed for some reason!
Anyway I enjoyed them very much. I'll have to read them again before watching the film.
