Sam Harris!
I don't always agree with him, but I love his promotion of veganism and secular ethics.

Re: Who is your favorite atheist "horseman"?
Probably Sam Harris. His podcast is probably the most interesting out there, aside perhaps from Dan Carlin's podcasts. I have my disagreements with him, but he often manages to be persuasive enough to at least make me doubt my position. I really like listening to the others as well. I think Ayaan is probably the least interesting horseman (if you count her), but I find her interesting because of her history in the Netherlands.

Definitely Sam Harris. His talks online played a big part in getting me to realize religion wasn't true. He has continued to change my mind about all sorts of things I wouldn't have expected and has kept any tendencies to blindly follow liberal talking points in check. The fact he is trying to become vegan on top of all this seals the deal for me.
As a religious person, dawkins and hitchens just confirmed the atheist stereotypes for me and were probably just a barrier to my deconversion. Hitchens is nice to listen to now that i've been atheist for a while though.

Dawkins is my favourite because I read his book "The God Delusion" while I am in Japan. It made me very happy to be an Atheist. Dawkins is lovely. Dawkins is badass. His voice is good to listen in the same way. Ah! He really like the following to say things badass: "Science is interesting and if you don't agree you can fuck off." I hope one day you will get to meet him.

He's funny because he doesn't act or talk like a 75-year old, and he often goes into very sensitive political topics

How to become vegan in 4.5 hours:
1.Watch Forks over Knives (Health)
2.Watch Cowspiracy (Environment)
3. Watch Earthlings (Ethics)
Congratulations, unless you are a complete idiot you are now a vegan.

Richard Dawkins. He knows his stuff, and is just awesome in every debate, whilst looking stupidly at the opposition.
