I sometimes create a small program to convert a module from e-Sword format to MySword, or to rip a web-published bible to an e-Sword and/or MySword module. I generally write this in Perl, a pretty versatile scripting language. The most important reason for using Perl is foremost because I am familiar with that language but also since Perl is using regular...

About Me
My name is Rob Wolfram and I live in the Netherlands.
As my handle implies, I am an atheist. My definition of an atheist is one who lacks belief in a god or in gods, kinda like the word ἄθεος in Ephesians 2:12 is translated in most bibles. Your likely next question will likely be: "what is he doing here?" I am very interested in religion from a historical and philosophical POV. For that reason I have taken it on myself to read the bible from cover to cover for the first time, a project which I finished in November 2011. To do that, e-Sword and MySword were very valuable tools. They still are and I still use them every day.
My purpose here is not to deconvert anyone. My road from religion to atheism was personal and so it should be. I was never "born-again". I was a weak Christian and it was actually studying the scriptures that was the main cause for loosing the little bit of religion that I had left. Once upon a time I wrote an article depicting how I came to be an atheist and most of it is still relevant. If you're interested, see that article. It's much more elaborate than I would wish to put on an "About Me" page.

Atheist Rob's Blog > My prayer experiment.
Posted 15 October 2012
I opted to take part in the Atheist Prayer Experiment , organized by the UK based Premier Christian Radio. In this, a number of atheists pray for 40 days, two to three minutes a day, for God to reveal himself to them. In the end I decided not to participate because the setup of the experiment was such that what I would consider a revelation was outside of...
Atheist Rob's Blog > The argument from morality
Posted 01 September 2012
I am a fan of the radio program and podcast named Unbelievable on Premier Christian Radio in the UK. In that program Christians and non-Christians are debating various topics. In a recent episode there was a debate between two bloggers, one of which recently converted from atheism to Catholicism. The reason she gave for her conversion is the argument fro...
