Would love to see a fundie explode when confronted with someone with progressive attitudes to sex and relationships. Priceless.

If it's called a "hung parliament" why aren't they? Surely, that's the most democratic outcome.

The sex party got 1567 to family first's 2364 votes for the senate in Wide Bay booths. No-one was handing out for the sex party here (as far as I know). We were handing out in Tamworth instead. The dumb fundy over the road was the FF candidate. He…

I've been to quite a few freethought conferences and events this year and this has been my favourite one to date. I'm so glad it's up on video now so that I can share it.

Sunshine Coast Atheists Run Amok at Melbourne Atheist Convention!

Thanks to Nexus members Karen and Luke for this great video on our local group's experience at the Global Atheist Convention.


Highlights - PZ Myers getting up close and personal with two of our gorgeous Sunshine Coast heathenettes, and Warren Bonett from Embiggen Books getting something of a man-crush on AC Grayling (after Grayling offered to do a book signing at Warren's bookstore).

We Have a Lot of Work to Do as Atheists

Bear with me now. This is not going to seem relevant for a while, but I do have a point.


The Melbourne Atheist Convention is just two weeks away and there is a flurry of dieting (not just women either!), clothes buying and hair fluffing going on in anticipation of meeting people we've only met on line and who, we fear, think we are a lot more attractive than we actually are! I have a feeling that Australia's spanx sales have gone through the roof!

my name is Mohammad ,from Iraq ,muslim,but I hate Islam,prophet Mohammad and Quran.
I want to leave my religion forever and be without any religion.
All religions are the stories and legends created by people to achieve their personal interests and control the minds of human .
I do not believe that "god is exist.
I do not want any one or religion control on me.
I want to be free in my life.
I am looking for freedom and paces in this universe
my dear friend? I'm suffering a lot in my community.
You know if any one wanted to change his religion or be without any religion, they will kill him.
So I hope to help me.

Hi Chrys
I live about 350km south of Sydney. I don't live in a town but just a small area with a grand total of 3 streets. My non theist ideas started when I was old enough to read. The rest is boring history.

Hi Chrys, missed you at dinner, but it was a good night and with only five of us, everyone was able to join in every strand of conversation. We didn't talk about you much... promise! Thanks for the welcome too! Ford.

Hey Chris, you know me at AFA as wolty. Joined here a little while ago, but don't really have too much time to spend here. AFA seems to take up all my available time.

Hello Chrys, I'm a guy in the bush and seldom get as far as Sydney. The closest town is 13km away with a pop. of about 2,000. I like Dawkins but can find most of his rambles on the net. Hope you have fun.

Thanks for the welcome, Chrys.
I am looking forward to the Atheist Convention - My husband and I have tickets for Sat and Sun. I'm really excited and looking forward to Richard Dawwkins and Peter Singer in particular.

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…

It's weird, but I never had the typical reaction to atheists when I was a believer. Oh sure, they were headed for hell, but I didn't presume to know or understand the reasons *why* they didn't believe. I didn't auto-dismiss them or hate their existe…
