Again, welcome to all newcomers. 10 more members and we will reach 300. Some time ago this was the largest English-speaking group of this kind on the Internet, but then there was a sudden jump in a couple of the Facebook groups that put one or more of them way ahead, which is all to the good. The more the merrier on all groups.

Hello everybody! I am new to the group. I am an atheist from Barbados now living in Canada.

You can check out some of my experiences and reflections on faith and atheism on my blog.

Look forward to getting to know you.

A belated welcome to all who recently joined this group. My energies are scattered in several directions at once and I can't always give everyone the attention deserved. I am way behind in writing for my own blog, but if you want to check it out:

http://reasonsociety.blogspot.com/

One theme that is emerging (though I haven't written all the posts yet) is not new, but it is being confirmed by the public discourse: i.e. that the moderates are de facto serving the right wing. More on this to come.

It is true that many people take the path of religion to lead them out of destructive life styles. It is also true that people can do the same thing without a reliance on faith (you just don't hear about it as much). You sound like a very nice you…

I've seen posts about the 50 commandments of jeebus put out by xtians that cite chapter and verse and you really don't need a commentary to go along with them. Boy it sure does kill the whole GOP/Tea Party platform.

From the article Tommy cited. "However, religious commentators have criticized Hawking's theorizing, saying he can never hope to explain what is essentially unexplainable." Well doesn't that kind of invalidate their own "god" theory then? ;p

Anybody else read it? I love the basic premise, and being an atheist means I can appreciate the mythology and not get bent out of shape about the multiple deities.

Wyoming is better than the southeast, from what I've seen. It's still a solid red state, though. My big point was that there are no cities. The closest it has are Cheyenne and Casper, each of which are around 50,000 people. The entire state barely…
