hi ramon..glad to see that i have a brother here..ummm..any events for atheist here in Phili??

Hi Ramon! As well as hosting the Aussie/Kiwi group here on Nexus I'm also the media and communications consultant for the forthcoming "Rise of Atheism" Global Atheist Convention to be held in Melbourne in March 2010. The Convention is being organized jointly by Atheist Alliance International and the Atheist Foundation of Australia.

I wonder if you could let your members know that tickets for the convention are now available online at the Convention website. We are expecting nearly 3,000 delegates, so this convention is going to be huge.

Confirmed speakers include: Richard Dawkins, AC Grayling, PZ Myers, Dan Barker, Peter Singer, Taslima Nasrin and many more.

Anything you can do to help us get the word out would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Ramon! Great to see you here :) Are you still with our yahoo group pinoy_atheists?

Just as the 10th Festival of Pacific Arts was about to get underway in the United States Territory of American Samoa, it was decided by the American Samoa Dept. of Health, the Pacific Arts Festival organizing comittee, and the Secratary of the Pacific Arts Commission that it would be a good Idea to include Condoms in the safety kits to be issued to incoming guests of the pacific Arts Festival in Pago Pago American Samoa.

No One had a problem with this as it was intent upon prevention of Veneral Desease, as well as the dreaded HIV AIDS,
Which has reached our Islands of Paradise.
The Bishop of the Local Catholic Dioces, or whatever it is called, decided that Condoms were against the word of "his" God, and that they should not be allowed in the Safety Kits.
So; Here is an old Faggot that most likely never had a piece of ass in his worthless life, who actually succeded in banning the Condoms from the Safety Kits.
Here goes the organized religion again with their horse shit against the poor. Keep the women barefoot and knocked up, and we will be able to keep them in church, and fleece them for their very last dimes!
The Catholic Church, the Old Pope, and his Army of "Child Molesting Queers," need to be dealt with in a manner befitting.
Thanks for the vent;
Doug Harrington

Hey Ramon;
I am in American Samoa.
My wife is a Filipina, {Eleanor}
There is quite a gathering in the Philippino Community here, but mostly all Catholics.
I have a site, and am a friend of Kristy in Australia.

We are making an attempt here, not to convert people from the Christian Myth, but to make available to them a place for open dialogue without retribution.
Feel free to visit my Blog, "The New Order of Hawkeyes Divine Deliverance.
I would like you to join my friends list.
Thanks & best regards;
Doug

I've already made a note on the Aussie/Kiwi site saying much the same thing - join one, both or neither as you see fit.
