Nothing says tolerance and diversity like screwing people based on their skin color and reproductive organs.  :rofl:

I would be prepared for such discrimination to be a major theme in the coming years.

I'm just amazed that folks need to get together to discuss what they don't believe in  :facepalm:
Freedom is a heavy load, a great and strange burden for the spirit to undertake. It is not easy. It is not a gift given, but a choice made, and the choice may be a hard one. The road goes upward toward the light; but the laden traveller may never reach the end of it.  - Ursula Le Guin

I "self identify" as an atheist and I don't get it.
If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.

"While the listed cost of attending the event is $99, admission is free to students, minorities, women, and members of the gay and lesbian community, according to the site."

How do they identify members of the gay and lesbian community for free access?  Is there like a membership card or something?  Would walking through the door flipping my wrist work, or is there a test of some kind?

The description of the conference makes it sound more like they are getting together to plot how to force the rest of us to believe like they do -- and, if not, to live as if we did anyway.

We need to come up with a new term for it to distinguish ourselves from Dawkins ahole atheism.

Makes no sense to me to pursue atheism with the zealotry of well, you know... a religion.
I promise not to duck.

Not intrested.

One side benifit of my being agnostic is not having to socialize.
If I wanted to get up on my day off and talk to people I don't like, I'd just start going to church. The people would be less annoying and the foods probably much better.

Hell I thought that the white male was the new minority in this country.
There are five things, above all else, that make life worth living: a good relationship with God, a good woman, good health, good friends, and a good cigar.

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you, Jesus Christ and the American Soldier.  One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

Bacon is the candy bar of meats!

Only the dead have seen the end of war!

We get a few more Mexican kids across the border, and that will be true.


As a Bible-thumping, young-Earth, straight, white, NRA, "anti-choice" Christian, I'd like to thank these atheists for giving their whole tribe a black eye.  :lol:
