I'm working with Beth Corbin and David Morris at AU and I need card-carrying, dues-paying members of AU to attend a Dec 9 meeting in Charleston. Contact me at JosephHigginbotham@gmail.com for details.

Comment by elaine priscilla on December 1, 2010 at 6:03am: After watching the documentary on Madalyn O'Hair I realised how involving making the world a better place and the wonderful work she did. My admiration for her and her loyal family struck a cord.To join american atheist friends in America from me in the UK is a priviledge. I am a member of thinkatheist on line.

Comment by linda wagner on November 14, 2010 at 11:39am: sorry thats neck not knee.

Comment by linda wagner on November 14, 2010 at 11:37am: Well thats depressing Robin. I think the population would be made up of different political views then there is now. Atheists would not have a God breathing down their knee on every decision. Stem cell research would be in high gear. Who knows what we may have FIXED by now.

Comment by Richard Wilson on September 18, 2010 at 7:13pm: Today I forced myself to sit through about 20 minutes of a couple of videos posted by a group that advertised itself as "Answering The New Atheists." These were intelligent people who were posing as deep thinkers. What I came away with was the sense that these people are trying to pull a con job. Contrary to their advertising, they didn't offer a single answer supporting their theist point of view. Instead, they bemoaned the way atheists treat them disrespectfully, and asked the question, "What would a government of atheists be like?" So, what they're saying is that they're scared of atheism, and they don't know what to do about it. Some of them look with longing at the old days when they could burn us at the stake.

Comment by Paul T. Bennethum on June 28, 2010 at 11:29am: Well! I am an American and I am an atheist so joing this group was the logical thing to do I think!

Here's a good point that's well spoken:
When the words 'under God' were added to the Pledge of Allegiance between 'one nation' and 'indivisible,' Stewart claims, "They made a lie out of both those ideals because you can't have an indivisible nation if you draw a line between the godly and godless. We all belong here."
