Eddie replied to Jennifer W's discussion 'Do you believe Jesus existed?'

there is no archeological evidence except for the bible that he has ever existed. However, I do think it is quite impossible to make up a story just like that. I do believe that Jesus probably did existed during his time, but if I said in "I am…

Eddie replied to Simon Miller's discussion 'Abbott shows true colours - compulsory bible study in schools' in the group Aussie, Kiwi & South Pacific Atheists

And I propose that Koran classes should be compulsory so children have a fundamental understanding of Islam on leaving school. How would you like that, Mr Abbott?

Well it is becomes hot during Christmas in Australia due to being summer in the southern hemisphere.

Eddie replied to Unsacred Cow's discussion 'Does Anyone Know About Life Education?' in the group Aussie, Kiwi & South Pacific Atheists

I remember that Life Education Van coming to my school when I was in primary school. I don't recall having anything religious in any of these programs. Teaching kids to eating healthy and living healthy seems nothing wrong with me. There's…

Eddie commented on Chrys Stevenson's group 'Aussie, Kiwi & South Pacific Atheists'

Imagining sleeping with Richard Dawkins? A bit too much information don't you think Kristy lol? Yeah I read that small article in The Age about the Atheist Convention. Its great to see the media has taken an interest in the event, well only one…

Just bought and started reading Richard Dawkin's new book; The Greatest Show on Earth: The Evidence for Evolution. I say it's the rapper Eminem-style two middle-fingers up to the creationist.

Eddie replied to Eddie's discussion 'Even though we are atheist, we should have to accept that religion will always be part of society.' in the group Aussie, Kiwi & South Pacific Atheists

OK I admit, I knew nothing about the criticism of Mother Teresa. To be honest, when I put her name as one of 'good people who are religious', I knew little about Teresa. I've only heard about the 'good work' she has done. I…

Cannibalism eventually got outmoded. We'll get there, one day. Probably not in our lifetimes, but that doesn't mean that religion is a mandatory persistance in mankind's existence.

Hi Eddie - Dick Gross is from Melbourne. He's a former Mayor of Port Phillip, now an author. He has also founded a secular 'Saturday School' for non-theistic Jews in Melbourne so that they can learn and keep Jewish traditions and…

Why I do not believe in God, by Dick Gross

This a very good article from The National Times, an online social commentary and opinion website run by Fairfax Media, owner of the Sydney Morning Herald, The Age, and The Australian Financial Review. To view the website, go to the National Times website, go down to 'The Bloggers', and find 'Godless Gross' amongst the blogs. Can someone tell me who is Dick Gross? Probably wants to remain anonymous. Funny name, if that is his real name.Why I do not believe in a GodBy Dick GrossThe National…See More

Kid, I totally agree with what were are saying. What I meant about 'die out of existence' is slowly gets smaller and smaller until it just collapse itself due to lack of membership. What you have said forcing religion out of existence is…

I don't really see why we have to accept that it will never go away. It has been going away of its own accord all over the world for years. http://www.adherents.com/largecom/com_atheist.html

About Me: I have been a lifelong atheist but have embraced atheism only in recent times, and dare I say I am very proud to be an atheist. I come from a secular family and religion has never been a part of my family's life. I have never considered myself as part of a religion, and never ever had any intention to join a religion. I look forward to have some fun with other like-minded people in this website. One thing I do believe is that if there is going to be an 'End of the World', I say let it happen. We everyone one of us will die and there will be nothing else to worry anything about.

Be sure to select “follow” on the right hand side of the group page so that you are automatically notified of new posts. Also, please review the archive of posts and comments if you have the time.

Please note, because this is a private group, the group icon will not show up in your GROUPS section on your homepage, for some odd reason.

At 6:57pm on August 8, 2009, Dallas Gaytheist said…: Edwin, welcome to Atheist Nexus. Be sure to check out the GROUPS page to find like-minded people. And don't be shy about the ABOUT ME section. That's how we'll get to know you.

I've started five groups here, so please join any you think you might be interested in: ARS POETICA, LOVERS OF SHAKESPEARE, HUMANE ATHEISTS, ODDITORIUM, and my newest group, HERCULANEUM: A PLACE FOR MEN.

Herculaneum is a group where men can discuss and explore the ideas, goals, demands, ethics, sexuality, and nature of manhood and masculinity. It is a place where we are free to be ourselves, and discuss the issues most important to our identities as men.

I have already started two discussions to get us going: How do we define manhood in the 21st century? and Rites of Passage: A Lost Ritual?.

This is a private group, and discussions can be viewed by members only. Membership is open to men only. Please check it out.

BTW, is Wan a Chinese name?

I hope you enjoy the site.
