Fred Edwords commented on American Humanist Association's group 'American Humanist Association (Official)'
Zeke isn't the only foul-mouthed prophet in the Bible. Consider Malachi. This is Malachi 2:3 from the Good News Translation:

No, Samantha, nobody is ever "truly happy" (whatever that is). Drunken bliss 24/7 just ain't gonna happen.
Why then do we soldier on? How has humanity, after centuries upon centuries of a life that is "nasty, brutish, and…

In response to Fred Werther's question:
"Will the online members have access to a forum for AHA or something. Email list whatever?"
Actually, everyone in the world already does have such access. There are two opportunities:

The Internet doesn't discriminate. The free online membership will be for all who sign up. It just isn't live yet.

Dear Geraldo, At the time the United States entered the war in Iraq, I was editor of the Humanist magazine, and all the articles I published at the time and for three years afterwards not only opposed that war but also opposed the war in…

Valuable comment, Geraldo! Your points are well taken. This explains why the Humanist magazine, which I edited for a dozen years and is now most ably edited by Jennifer Bardi, focuses on human rights, social justice, peace, cultural pluralism, and…

The AHA is developing a free online membership. Watch for it!

Welcome Tea Cup! Even if you can't join the AHA, keep following the website. There's new stuff appearing there all the time, as well as essays and articles you can read if you reach into the website to find them.

Well Susan, I viewed your profile, learned about the group "Science Fiction/Fantasy Atheists" there, joined it, and posted a comment. Thanks for posting that lead.

Great to have you on board, Larry!
Fred Edwords commented on American Humanist Association's group 'American Humanist Association (Official)'
Well, you'll see me there. And in reading your profile comments on the arts, and seeing that you sing and act, I hope we can connect. The humanist movement could use more people like you. Perhaps you should meet with the conference organizers…

Perhaps we should look upon "divinity" in this context as just the standard name of a particular thing that no longer has to be just about studies related to gods. Another example of how words can lose their purely religious connotations…

Ruth Anthony-Gardner said… - Greetings, Fred! I notice you haven't been active at Atheist Nexus since April. <sigh> Sometimes it can seem a bit fragmented, with different groups for every interest. Please consider a group for socializing, where we talk about whatever's on our minds, Hang With Friends. :D You might feel more at home.

Dr. Terence Meaden said… - Hi, and a friendly welcome to Frederick E. Edwards.
Very glad to have you here among the sensible, rational people of this world.
This is the great Nexus meeting place with its thousands of bright people like you who recognise religion for the superstition and brainwashing fraud that it is---
and that gods exist only as fictions inside people's heads.
Terry Meaden
originator of the busy discussion group
"ORIGINS: Universe, Life, Earth, Humankind, Fossils, Religion, Evolution, Darwin..." with its over 240 discussion topics.
We invite you to come and see, and to make good new friends.
