    Thanks. Will do. That reading list of yours is going to keep me busy for a few weeks, I think.
  • Brian Flatt

    Yea, give or take a few years.
  • Reg The Fronkey Farmer

    Got this from Sam Harris today for their reading list. It may require a login a/c.

  • Reg The Fronkey Farmer

    I will pass on what I think is useful and you can decide it's merit for others.  Information leads to increase in knowledge (objective lol). That is all I am about. Another one from the real Imam.

    See the "recommended link".

  • Ethan Thies

    Thanks for reading my post! I enjoyed the links of your writing as well. I haven't had a chance to check out the podcast just yet because I'm in the middle of finals at the moment so time is scarce. I look forward to checking it out in a few days once the chaos of exams is finished. I'll be sure to throw questions your ways if/when they arise.
  • Jason Lamar Sorensen

    Thanks for all the help Nelson!
  • Reg The Fronkey Farmer

    This Debate is good but too large to upload. Between Sam Harris and W.L.Craig.

  • Reg The Fronkey Farmer

    Cool only saw it in my email today. It is not easy to listen to Craig. I cringe so much I get a headache :-). Maybe he should have followed Harris to Goa, India for a while and dropped a few !
  • Cynthia

    Hey thank you so much!
  • Cynthia

    Oh great! Will do! I hope to stick around! Its pretty rare to see an active forum now-a-days!
  • Cynthia

    Awesome! Now I'm never going to leave my laptop, thanks! haha :)
  • Cynthia

    Welp, I'm in the (very long) process of getting a half sleeve. I'm getting birds in pairs, on my arm. I love birds, and I used to go bird watching with my grandmother(even though we don't agree on religion she was a big part of my childhood, and I love her very much) Its just one of the best memories I have had with her, and reminds me of my free spirited childhood..I miss it.

    Here's a link to a halfway decent photo of it(my arm was pretty swollen, looked like I was a body builder LOL) Do you have any tattoos?

  • Cynthia

    Thanks! It's really tough to decide on something that will be on you forever, lol. Plus, its expensive! If you see something you like though you should do it :D Its fun!
  • Jam Aryadeep

    Can you tell Me how to enter the contest on twitter?
    I have a twitter account but Am not active in twitter.
    Am active in facebook. You guys can create an active group in facebook. You'll get many people!
  • Reg The Fronkey Farmer

    Wish I had thought of this one - pet insurance for those animals left behind when their owner get beamed up. Volunteers need to blaspheme against the holy ghost in order to be allowed to mind them. Hahaha. Excellent.
  • Jonathan

    Thanks for accepting me :-)
  • Kieran Salsone

  • Michael Steven Martin

  • Reg The Fronkey Farmer

    I will be attending http://www.atheist.ie/world-atheist-convention-2011/ and will post some updates afterwards. PZ and Dawkins are confirmed.
  • Rose

    Hey, thanks so much for the welcome! :)
  • MikeLong

    Hi,
    I just read (and added to) the discussion on (Inter)National Atheism Awareness Day. I think TA should push this hard with other sites. One thing I noticed was that "www.atheism.org" is not really being used. (It currently forwards to "infidels.org".) "Atheism.org" might be able to be used as a vehicle for uniting the movement.
  • Sochel Narten

    Glad to be here, thank you...

  • stanley w owens

  • Suzanne Olson-Hyde

    Hello Nelson

    I am trying to buy to dog tags, but it seems that I can only buy one at a time - is this true, Can you give me any information on this. Thanks.
  • Janis Klonowski

    Thank you!

  • Hunter Griffin

    D'oh, that was quite stupid of me.
    Thank you for pointing that out-- also, a special thanks for actually reading the "About Me." I usually think those are widely ignored. 

  • Danny Sanchez

    Thanks for the add Nelson. I find your comments to be some of the most informative comments I come across.

  • KaraC

    Thanks for the "friending" Nelson. I'm looking through your posts.

  • Simon Morris

    No problem, it's good to be here.

  • Laura Reilly

    Hi Nelson. I belong to a number of educators' groups that highlight social justice issues; they include "Teaching Tolerance," "Teaching for Change," and "Rethinking Schools." Teaching Tolerance shared a link to an article about banned books in Tucson's schools, and it was while reading it that I stumbled across Think Atheist. I don't know how exactly but I think it was referenced in the article or on that page. Anyway I haven't had too much time to read what's hear but I'm interested in what I see so far! Best, Laura

  • Julia Ngo

    Hey Nelson! I just attended the Think Atheist Baltimore meet up this evening. Morgan, Cara and Robert spoke so highly of you. Thank you for your contributions to this site. I gained much insight tonight and hope to be more involved :)

  • Keith Murphy

    No prob, thanks Nelson

  • Logan Peaker

    Thanks for the add! I'm quite happy I stumbled across this network!

  • Sharon

    Thank you!

  • Juliet Annerino

    Thanks for getting this site/service together and running for us all, Nelson! Sorry it's taken me awhile to get in touch with you. you're doing a great job :)

  • Lisa Heap

    You're fast! And thanks for the welcome.

  • Estella B Perkins

    Hi Nelson, Thanks for the welcome!

  • Dan Marshall

    YEAH! I'm one of the cool kids now! :P

  • Dan Marshall

    Pffft... Damn atheists always want proof for extraordinary claims!

  • Dan Marshall

    Embarrassingly, I have not had a chance to start any of those books yet. I've been working on writing at least 500+ words each day, so that's been keeping me busy. I also work for a testing company in the testing sector, so you can imagine that this is a very busy time of year for us. I'm sure I'll be done making excuses soon, let me see if I can think of one or two more...

  • Dan Marshall

    Sooooo... you're saying that you either own a flying DeLorean or a Time-Turner then, yeah? Either that, or you're a robot. How do you find the time to read that many books?!
