The Atheist Pocket Debater

If you have an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad you may have noticed that there a lot of apps in the app store dealing with religion of various sorts, but very little related to atheism. Fortunately the balance has been restored a little with the release of the Atheist Pocket Debater from developer Jason Hagen for the very reasonable price of £1.79.

This app collects together a range of articles grouped into three sections dealing with Humanism, Skepticism and Atheism covering topics from the Humanist manifesto, to Pascal's wager to a handy checklist of questions to ask for debunking bogus claims. The app is easy to navigate with a useful search function and the option of changing the font size to suit your eyesight.

Some of the articles and arguments may be familiar to seasoned skeptics, but it is handy to have them available to you when you need to refer to them, and the developer has promised regular updates.

Worth checking out!
