The (top 30) Award on the right column top is not exactly bogus, nor is it exactly legitimate. It is awarded by a site which wants something in return. The site accumulates posts from at least 30 Atheist blogs, and provides a path to access those sites through the web site, for a little cash. So the site owner, probably just one guy, gave those sites the "top 30" designation. This is not an Atheist Association, peer-voted, Academy Award type of award, nor a Heisman or Nobel-type, nothing of the sort. But I decided to put it up anyway. Sort of a kick. But it's over now, and I admit that I contributed to the deception.
That doesn't mean I'm going to take it down, of course. This is just admission that it doesn't convey more than just a smile. And I say that, because we all know that this blog should actually merit the #1 Atheist Blog award, whoever gives that out (maybe it's me).
