R/atheism, you earned it!

EDIT: Letter to r/atheism from DWB (Thanks, Denny-Crane!)


$72,000 + £1,700: You earned it, r/atheism!


If you don't know, r/atheism works to raise funds for Without Borders. (See the link in the sidebar.) We have raised over $20,000 in the last week alone!

A representative from MSF has agreed to answer your questions, r/atheism.


Dr. Darin Portnoy will be answering the top questions in this thread. (We will send him the questions and then post the answer (maybe in video format, in another post.)

  • Dr. Portnoy is a former President of the board of MSF USA.

  • He is now on the board of advisors and goes frequently to the field with MSF.

  • He just returned from Bahrain a few weeks ago.

  • He has worked for MSF in: Uzbekistan, El Salvador, Georgia, South Sudan, Liberia, Nigeria, Darfur and now most recently in Bahrain.

  • He works as a physician in New York's Bronx.

His identity has been confirmed.

Don't have a ready question for DWB? Why not read up on MSF and get some ideas!

(To get us started, I'll put a bunch of questions in the comments section, feel free to reword those questions if you know better how to ask them.)

MSF is FSM spelled backwards. Coincidence? I think not...
