While April fools day is funny I think that we should research what days certain theories were proven and have a thread for it on those days for education. After all isn't finding and knowing the truth what we are about?
Yes its funny. But I also believe it is totally appropriate. The billions over the centuries that have been fooled into insane beliefs. I don't make this suggestion as a joke - I'm deadly serious about it. I have found no atheists I know in person that think this is a bad idea.
Didn't think it was a bad idea just think we could do better. Least that was my reasoning. After reasoning further I see the appeal and you have a new supporter on this idea.
Actually, no its not. Being an atheist is about not believing in God. Pure and simple and nothing else. I don'te like it when I hear atheists say such things. Partly because it sounds pretentios and partly because it sounds fluffy, and without substance.
April Fool's Day is appealling because it highlights who the fools really are. Any other day can be celebrated as a day of reason or discovery or else it's someone's birth or death day. April Fool's is good for the fact there is no reason for it to be celebrated.
