#atheistcon 6 Day end

I’ve gotta say, I’m glad I’m here.  At the Global Atheist Convention.  It’s so good to be in an environment where I know people share the same unbelief that I do.  It’s really great to hear words of condemnation for homophobia.  These are rare moments that give me a glimmer of hope that the Rise of Atheism may really have an impact and perhaps a change in the way the world runs.  It’s going to take a long time, but just maybe what’s going on in Melbourne will lead to a better world where the influence of religion is relegated to the same level as the influence of the local rotary clubs.

There was a lot of kick the catholics tonight, which is always a good thing, but it would be nice to get some positive discussion on atheism without the need to refer to religion at all.  How is that done?

And I’d like to know how atheist feel about homosexuality.  It’s really good to sit there and listen to the words of support, but if there are atheist that still have some reservations about homosexuality, I’d be keen to know what they are, and how they justify them.  Are you one?  Let me know!

So now, getting ready for day 2.  I have to comb my flocculent locks.
