"@ Dr F. Grogan Actually, that was the supposed plagiarist I was referring to. The last two paragraphs apparently were lifted by him from somewhere else. Whoever were you referring to in that somewhat oblique last statement?"

"@Tom - I believe that's called a 'modus tollens' exception: A: To make a claim about a theistic being, we must have evidence. B: We don't have evidence. C: Therefore, we can't make claims about a theistic being."

Save the Net

The Get Up! group has launched their campaign against mandatory internet censorship. It's worth getting behind.

For those who don't know, the federal Minister for Broadband, Communications and the Digital Economy, Stephen Conroy is proposing internet censorship at ISP level. In my opinion, the moves being planned are an INTERNATIONAL DISGRACE!!!

I haven't blogged much recently

Posted on October 30, 2008 at 9:30am 0 Comments

I have been meaning to blog more recently, but I just don't seem to find all that much time to do it.

Here are a couple of things that I've been meaning to blog about:



1. The forthcoming atheist bus advertisements in London. Due January 2009.



And there's more… Continue

On the subject of Glarbism

Posted on October 23, 2008 at 8:24am 5 Comments





I was recently reminded of glarbs on Bronze Dog's blog. I find the Glarbism phenomenon fascinating.



Have you ever met a Glarbist? I haven't, but nonetheless, I still find Glarbism fascinating.



According to Glarbists, glarbs are flarschnikit. I kid you not.…

Blogging

Not sure how I'm going to use this blog feature. I suspect that it'll just be too hard to do my main blog and keep this one up to date as well, but I'll have a bash.

In the meantime, my main blog is here: Dikkii's Diatribe

And we'll see if that's that.

Hi Dikii! Welcome to Atheist Nexus. I'm Kris from Queensland. I'd like to invite you to join our Aussie, Kiwi and South Pacific Atheists Group. Please feel free to drop in any time to add a comment, join in a discussion, or to start a topic of your own.

I'd also like to let you know about our Australian working group which is brainstorming ideas for a submission on "Freedom of Religion and Belief in the 21st Century" for the Human Rights and Equal Opportunities Commission. We think it's important that atheists have a voice in this important discussion. If you're interested, we'd love to have your input.

I hope you enjoy the site!

From your "about me" blurb, I wouldn't doubt you'd enjoy the No Nonsense group.

You need to be a member of Atheist Nexus to add comments!

My first funeral as an atheist

Posted by Two Cult Survivor on May 21, 2013 at 11:33am 0 Comments

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).

THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…

Death of a family member

Posted by Larry Taylor on May 20, 2013 at 8:15pm 7 Comments

OK. I am venting. My mother died two weeks ago. She was a “god fearing christian.” Before her death she refused all medical treatment. She wanted to be left alone. She even refused to speak with my brother who is a methodist minister. He is a pip, let me tell you! I suspect she did not believe, but a woman born in her time could not and did not state her actual beliefs. This is the opening salvo to all christians; FUCK YOU! I had so many people come and tell…

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!

Posted by Christy Stewart on May 20, 2013 at 2:17pm 6 Comments

This probably should not have shocked me as much as it did (especially since I am in Texas). I actually thought my coworkers were playing a joke on me because they know I am an atheist. Sadly, this was no joke. This actually happened.

I work in a psychiatric hospital. The doctors who admit patients are general MDs. (Psychiatrists see patients after admission) Yesterday evening we received several calls from irate parents. A new doctor who was doing admissions yesterday actually…

anti-atheist rant from an Orthodox Mormon part 2

What do you think of this,

 

Nathan Young,

 

No Jason Torpy it is you that should be banned for promoting atheism, a belief that has no foundation in reality and zero proof behind it.  The letter was a mockery of your atheist beliefs.  I request to the board here that they remove Jason for his unverifiable beliefs in atheism for which he has no proof other than his arrogance.  The letter was a mockery of atheism.  Atheism is stupid and it should be mocked and it…
