    Historical Jesus

    Actually, to me this is one small point in favor of Judeo-Christianity. Almost every evil empire in human history has tried to oppress or eliminate the Jews. And they didn't just survive, they are now thriving (both in their own state, and dispersed throughout the West).

    Freethought Organizations

    But it seems about 50% are on neither side. They don't care much and assume religion is true because it's the majority/establishment. I want to awaken them. Add the ones that are superficially agreeing with religion but the snark is apparent only if you read between the lines (Franklin)...

    Freethought Organizations

    Yes, FFRF does great stuff. Especially the legal work. I have given them money for that, and plan to give a lot more. But I do not think they are as outreachy as you seem to think they are. Most of their communications are preaching to the choir. Where are these billboards, I believe they...

    Freethought Organizations

    Greetings, I have a question for the group: Is there an organization that actively spreads Free Thought? There are several organizations that defend Free Thought (FFRF, CFI, SSA, AHA). They are great at what they do. But they are mostly preaching to the choir. And so the forces of religion...

    The Nones

    It seems to me that Humanists who object to Christianity's oversized role in government and education should not mind the "Nones" label for now. It makes us look more numerous than we really are. Ambiguous as it is, won't it be a good day when it reaches 50%?

    New map captures explosive rise of the nonreligious

    I do not see how the national None average is 28% if the number is lower than that in only two small states. Hope the state numbers are true ones...

    Books that dramatically changed the way you think

    The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy. Because in the end, it's all about probabilities and absurdities.
