do you know of a good local service that handles car donations, and that doesn't use their money to proseletyze religion to kids?
Sam Singleton Atheist Evangelist’s live performances draw a surprisingly diverse audience--not only the expected “true nonbelievers” and “philosophical and theological types” but, a lot of people who just like to laugh.
The two-act show, which writ…
sure. where is your place? did you have any topics you wanted to hit? or mechanics you'd like to tweak in the podcast format? or technical shit? hey what's up :)
traffician, please get in touch with me about it. I've been considering the same thing for a while and I'd love to bounce some ideas around.

- About Me
- I'd like to organize some more-frequent atheist meets here in my native Philly, but where we do other fun shit besides drink and talk about logic and fundwits. Philly needs to be doing most of whatever the Atheist Community of Austin are doing (activities, calendar).
Became incredulous early in catholic school after learning their laughable beliefs about Babel and language and a sky-tower. Had disbelieved in god/souls/hell/heaven after high school, but it was an NPR thing with Penn Jillette that cinched it for me. It was the first time I heard someone make his own case that he believed there was no god. Now I outright deny the existence or effects of any supernatural ...woo-woo.
In the closet to immediate family, though most of my friends know I'm an explicit atheist.
I still think the Tao Te Ching is an awesome book, but i now understand why -some- of the cantos never made any sense to me.

Billy Deaton said… - Hey, man. Sorry it took me a few days to get back to you, I guess I was waiting on an email, but now that I see how confusing the nexus' emailing system is I'm not surprised. Anyway, I run this blog goodreasonnews.blogspot.com and was considering a podcast that kind of reviewed the week or two weeks or whatever in religion/atheism news and opinions. In addition to being a godless liberal, I'm also a professional journalist and I've worked in radio before. I was hoping to model the podcast after something like Austin's Non-Prophets mixed with possible guest interviews like Free Thought Radio.
As far as technical equipment, I have a few microphones. I might have a friend in drexel, but I doubt that means we can use their studio, and I also might have a friend working at 88.1 WPEB. It's that west philly radio station (the city paper did a nice piece about them when they opened about this time last year.)
It only reaches a couple miles, but I don't see why we couldn't do a show out of there and make it available for podcast online.
These are just a few ideas I've been tossing around, but when I saw your post, I thought 'oh, good, someone else is into it.'
What do you think? Want to meet and discuss ideas some day?
You can reach me here or at notsuchgoodnews@gmail.com

Join groups, and help and profit from the discussions and rational debate. e.g. try visiting the busy group "ORIGINS: Universe, Life, Humankind, Darwin..." for sociable discussion and good writing. Terry Meaden

It is true that many people take the path of religion to lead them out of destructive life styles.
It is also true that people can do the same thing without a reliance on faith (you just don't hear about it as much).
You sound like a very nice you…
I thought it was utterly brilliant that he said Abbot's offer of a billion dollars for Hobart hospital was immoral!
His refusal of such a ridiculous bribe iis one of the first moral acts I've ever seen from a politician. Clearly the man will have a…
I've seen posts about the 50 commandments of jeebus put out by xtians that cite chapter and verse and you really don't need a commentary to go along with them.
Boy it sure does kill the whole GOP/Tea Party platform.
I'm telling Miss Julie! . . (Sombody wants a spanking!!).
Seems like you could be in danger of getting more than just your tongue stuck, to a dancing pole at the north pole . . .
Just be carefull... I had a similar discussion with my sisnlaw and it almost caused a big rift in my otherwise tightly nit family.
From the article Tommy cited.
"However, religious commentators have criticized Hawking's theorizing, saying he can never hope to explain what is essentially unexplainable."
Well doesn't that kind of invalidate their own "god" theory then? ;p
Anybody else read it? I love the basic premise, and being an atheist means I can appreciate the mythology and not get bent out of shape about the multiple deities.
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…

I saw a video, or a blog post once that listed all the uncomfortable and illogical things that a person must do, according to Jesus' own words, in order to follow him. The list included hating your family, selling all your possessions, etc. I'm pret…
It's been almost a full day, and none of them have responded. I'm hoping that's the end of it, and they have bowed to my superior sophistry. ;-)
