"I would just go ahead and do it. If a potential employer is going to practice unjust discrimination against me because of my lack of religious belief, then I would not want to work there in the first place. Why hide who I am for the sake…"

I have begun looking into forming an atheist/freethinkers organization at my university. While I am very excited to begin, and I am also apprehensive. My best friend (also an atheist) strongly…Continue

Which religion is the most plausible?

I think it was on T/A that I read someone's response to a Christian who was rationalizing his religion. The dissenter pointed out that even among the other religions, Christianity is one of the…Continue

Promoting T/A at my College

I have been toying with the idea of promoting Think Atheist at my college for quite some time. Just little ways, like perhaps a poster, or even a chalk drawing. Does anyone have any creative ideas…Continue

First, I must say that I am very concerned about the negative view of atheists. I faked Christianity for years despite my disbelief in a God. This was because being an Atheist was not an option;…Continue

Meghan V! replied to Meghan V!'s discussion 'Atheist Job Discrimination?'"Nate, that's rather inspirational, especially coming from a southerner. Being from the Northeast, I have a much easier time, and sometimes feel that my concerns are unwarranted. You make a good point about hiding yourself, and…"
Cognizant Psyche replied to Meghan V!'s discussion 'Atheist Job Discrimination?'"I can understand your concerns, especially in a country that demonizes Atheism. I also admire your enthusiasm to start up your organization. I guess it would boil down to who it was that is looking at your resume. I also recently…"

I have begun looking into forming an atheist/freethinkers organization at my university. While I am very excited to begin, and I am also apprehensive. My best friend (also an atheist) strongly suggested that I DO NOT start a club, or even become the administrator of an atheist facebook group for my college, because it could be a potential source of job discrimination. I know that employers often look at your facebook when considering whether to employ you, and if a religious/religiously…See More
Meghan V! replied to Darrell Mont's discussion 'What Do You Call Yourself'"I tend to avoid calling myself anything at first; I usually say I'm "not religious" or "do not subscribe to any religion." This works, because normally someone will ask me what my religion is, not whether or not I believe in…"

"Splendid!
My favorite response to the "tide goes in, tide comes out" is Stephen Colbert's summary of O'Reilly's logic:
"I don't know how things work, therefore, GOD EXISTS!!""
erik112358 replied to Meghan V!'s discussion 'Which religion is the most plausible?'"I briefly looked through this thread, so forgive me if this has already been mentioned. Of any religion, I think Deism is the most plausible. A Deist believes that there is a "God", but it does doesn't involve itself in…"
Eric Wichman replied to Meghan V!'s discussion 'Which religion is the most plausible?'"I think all religions are "fact" on the grounds of considering them political, cultural, and traditional institutions with certain social benefits steeped in highly interpretive philosophic literature and subjectively relative…"
Jason Ward replied to Meghan V!'s discussion 'Which religion is the most plausible?'"Maybe "which religion is least likely to attempt a coup of reason and thrust a civilization into near perpetual state of subjugation, servitude, and self loathing?"
Heather Spoonheim replied to Meghan V!'s discussion 'Which religion is the most plausible?'"@Mike G - Go right on ahead - I stole it myself. :D"
Mike G replied to Meghan V!'s discussion 'Which religion is the most plausible?'"Heather, I like "Atheism is as much a religion as 'OFF' is a TV channel." I'll be borrowing that."
AntiChristianLeague replied to Meghan V!'s discussion 'Which religion is the most plausible?'"If I believed that any religion was plausible, I probably wouldn't be an atheist. But there are certain aspects of Buddhism that I do like."
Charles B. replied to Meghan V!'s discussion 'Which religion is the most plausible?'"Damn cool, I like it! thanks for sharing."

Geektheist (Rocky Oliver) replied to Meghan V!'s discussion 'Which religion is the most plausible?'"That was great!
I think Edward Current (blog youtube), Keith Lowell Jensen (blog youtube), and Sam Singleton - Atheist Evangelist (website youtube) are the top atheist comedians/humorists out there today.
Thanks for sharing!"
Akshay Bist replied to Meghan V!'s discussion 'Which religion is the most plausible?'"Maybe someone should make a scale. Rate religions on different aspects. Like how much do they diverge from science, how many contradictions are in the religions. How complicated is it, how many restrictions do they put on the adherents, what are the…"

Sydni Moser said… - Yes, I do remember you welcoming me to the Ithaca Meet-up. Hope to meet with you in person soon enough. Allegra is my daughter and also attending college in the area. She is not very active on T/A since she too is very busy with school, but she has made it to one meet-up so far. We've met some awfully nice folks at the meetings and look forward to making your acquaintance.
