Permalink Reply by Russell20 on January 26, 2012 at 1:04pm What? surely he can't be serious. After so many debates with believers gently explaining why Atheism is not a religion, this twat wants to build us a temple ffs. This has to be a joke item stolen from the "Onion"
we can hope that it isn't true. i can't find any info on it anywhere besides HP. this is the last thing the Atheist movement needs. the high cost of this structure could be better used in so many other areas to promote secularism.

looks like it's a real thing. it sounds like he has a very narrow view of Atheism, one that i doubt is very prevalent amongst many non-believers.

i don't mind at all. one of many good things about Atheists is our interest in calling out our own kind when we see stupidity.

This sucks.
