Egyptian anger at Islamist call to ban Arabian Nights
Looks like the hard-core Islamists do not even like their own cultural history. One of the most famous and old Middle Eastern collection of stories- "1001 Nights"- is to raunchy and should be banned:http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/8663123.stmNice to see, that people are openly standing up and protesting against the Religious Nuts.See More

Welcome and cheers from Virginia. Love Pittsburgh. I'm going to a birthday party in Pittsburgh the first of June. There should be a travel section on A/N. It would be fun to meet other atheist for coffee or lunch.

Dr. Terence Meaden said… - Hi David, and welcome to this friendly meeting place where we recognise--like you do as a freethinking atheist--that all the gods are phoney and religions are cunning frauds used to control people;
and how tragic and inexcusable it is that women and minorities have been oppressed these last two thousand years and more.
