Acharya S/D.M. Murdock died on Christmas day

She had been battling cancer. Cancer doesn't care if you're right or wrong. I liked her stuff.

Her book The Christ Conspiracy: The Greatest Story Ever Sold opened my mind to a new way of thinking about religion. I guess it was about 15 years ago, before she got kind of famous. I actually exchanged a few e-mails with her and I was quoted on her web page.
