Atheist Nexus

Beginning 01/01/10 with the launch of our full website, the Foundation will host a multi-author invitational blog centered on big issues in philanthropy and humanism.

If you know an atheist/humanist who is already blogging brilliantly about the environment, poverty, peace, child welfare, animal protection, human rights, education, health, and/or general issues in philanthropy, please nominate by adding a link to this thread. We'll invite a few to kick us off in January, then gradually add more voices as we go. Self-nominations gladly accepted!

If for any reason you want the nomination to be discreet, drop me a note here.

This is EXACTLY the approach I'm talking about: Beyond Good Intentions is "an organization committed to uncovering more innovative and effective approaches to international aid worldwide."

I've sent a note to these folks to see if any among them are both atheist/humanist and experienced at blogging.

Anyone else have leads on bloggers for our invitational Foundation blog? We want people who are deeply informed about best practices in philanthropy and can also write engagingly and well.

Thanks Deb! At the moment I'm mostly looking for atheists/humanists with experience writing about the causes (poverty, health, environment, etc), but these are definitely two great sites to keep in mind.

I would love to blog about the intersection between fighting the climate crisis and religion. I currently blog at http://fundingourfuture.campusprogress.org about climate policy and youth movements.

Thank you Tommaso, I'm delighted to hear this. I'll be in touch shortly.

So...
This is no doubt a long shot, but I currently write a column about Apple products at

Its silly and lighthearted by design, but Atheism and Philanthropy are topics i am deeply passionate about. I would loved to be involved in any way- even if that means just reading if my style isnt what your looking for!

Good post. I hate to admit it, but I still get superstitious when a situation gets way out of control. "God get me through this." I don't believe in God, but it still calms me a bit. BTW Howard and John D ~ Check out the video I posted on Praying t…

Well, as a tenured professor, I don't have that employment risk. But here I am, surrounded by a bunch of so-called scientists, and every public occasion it is still automatically assumed that everyone is 'christian', i.e. grace before dinner, refere…

I must say I have negative feelings when it comes to homeschooling of any type unless there are medical issues that preclude a public education. I freely admit they are based solely on the isolation from the mainstream I felt as a child. From the 5t…

That brings up an interesting question... What do they do with their kirpan while flying? I seriously doubt they're allowed to bring it on board, so they'd have to put it in their checked luggage. If they're willing to make that concession, then the…

Excellent post Howard - I never really thought of "#4 Unhelpfulness disguised as helplessness". This must be one of the ways prayer actually makes the world a worse place. It provides an excuse for inactivity by claiming it really does do something.…

Lord J Bar - It is a good idea to not pick on your boss's religion. Way to hold back! It sucks to be right and unemployed.

Oh, I like that suggestion. And it would come in very useful for eating airline food.
