Thanks Terry. I am putting my 2 cents in.
Just received the news that my documentary featured on randi.org, which is a website of James Randi. The article is written by Steven Novella, M.D., JREF’s Senior Fellow and Director of the JREF’s Science-Based Medicine project.
Excerpt: "Here is one skeptical effort that needs our support now: Deepak Gupta (not Chopra) is the founder of SavvySkeptic.com. He is producing a documentary film on homeopathy that will actually reflect reality. An indiegogo campaign is underway to provide some funding for distribution and marketing – please visit his page and take a look, and consider becoming a supporter, and also help spread the word.
Fellow skeptics often ask me how they can support skeptical activism even if they don’t have the time or experience to run a blog or podcast – this is how. As a community we need to get behind those who are producing this kind of content."
Thanks so much. Like I said I live in Louisiana where rationality and common sense, like free thinkers, are hard to find. I am really looking forward to some intelligent conversation!
Thanks for the welcome! I certainly am going to enjoy "this internet world of rationality and peace that unites us all through common sense and freethinking wisdom". I live in a small coastal town in South Africa - very beautiful - but inhabited by an inordinate number of retired Dutch Reformed Church dominees (or as one of Graham Greene's characters called it, the Much Deformed Church) and their thin-lipped wives. Frankly, it's not their awful brand of evangelical religion that gets my goat, or even their self-righteousness and moral smugness. it's the utter tedium of their small religion-raddled brains. (Although they can be good sport for any out-spoken atheist!) So am very much looking forward to some lively discussions on this site!

thank you kindly sir, i hope this site ( my first attempt at joining any forum) will be an enlightening tool, to share some opinions and indeed frustrations that being a life long atheist are surfacing in my middle age.
Thanks so much for the warm welcome. I will be sure to check out the group on my quest to find my place to contribute to the community.

Hi Terence, thanks for your invitation to the various groups. My interests covers a wide range and its likely that I could comment on topics within all of the groups although as we all know time is the limiting factor.
