Steve Eley

Steve Eley is an American speculative fiction author and podcaster. He edits and produces Escape Pod, a science fiction podcast, is the producer of Pseudopod, a horror podcast, and PodCastle, a fantasy fiction podcast that debuted on April 1st, 2008.

In 1994-1995 Eley was one of a group of students who produced a manifesto about the Invisible Pink Unicorn on alt.atheism. Eley is usually credited as the primary author, and this quote is attributed to him: [cite newsgroup|url=http://groups.google.com/group/talk.origins/msg/443cc98ce879e905|author=Natalie Overstreet|title=Veracity of Christianity|newsgroup=talk.origins|date=1994-07-19|id=30h7po$33c@bmerha64.bnr.ca]

"Invisible Pink Unicorns are beings of great spiritual power. We know this because they are capable of being invisible and pink at the same time. Like all religions, the Faith of the Invisible Pink Unicorns is based upon both logic and faith. We have faith that they are pink; we logically know that they are invisible because we can't see them."
The irony of Eley's IPU-related fame is that he has since stated in an Escape Pod introduction that he is not actually an atheist.
