\n

What do you get when a Buddhist raconteur, a junior high Jewish messiah, and a transsexual cowboy for Christ walk into a bar?<\/h2>\n

Find out at Le Poisson Rouge in New York City on June 29th<\/strong> when Killing the Buddha<\/em>, the award-winning online magazine of god for the godless, releases its new anthology, Believer, Beware: First-Person Dispatches from the Margins of Faith<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n

The evening will feature an open bar, door prizes, and stories by Paul Morris of BOMB Magazine<\/em>, Irina Reyn, author of What Happened to Anna K.<\/em>, and horse wrangler Quince Mountain.<\/p>\n

Drawn from the website created by Jeff Sharlet and Peter Manseau in 2000, Believer, Beware<\/em> is a collection of true confessions, skeptical testimonies, and personal revelations of religion lost, found and then lost again. Library Journal in a starred review, says Believer, Beware<\/em> is “shocking, exhilarating, and never dull…. Highly recommended.” Publishers Weekly describes it as “smart, candid, and insightful…. The voices are refreshingly honest.”<\/p>\n

Just the facts, ma’am…<\/h3>\n

Where: Le Poisson Rouge, 158 Bleecker, New York City [Google map link<\/a>]
\nWhen: Monday, June 29, 2009
\nTime: 6:00 – 9:00 pm
