Atheist church

I don’t think that churches have a monopoly on socialisation, discussion, hanging out or explouring ideas.

“Boring! They should be inviting along people who don’t agree with them.”

well not really – because it is actually very irritating having to speak slowly and constantly repeat yourself because religiofreaks can’t grasp simple logic and apply all kinds of whacky logics to things. And anyway when atheist groups meet up the conversation tends not too stick around the religion because there are far more interesting things out there than religion to discuss.

But how do they know its a random restaurant and not one specially selected by some higher power?

I get the joke, but it’s probably worth pointing this out …

If atheists suspected that, it would indicate that they believe that there is a higher power. Atheists actively reject the idea that there is a $DEITY (as opposed to Agnostics, who don’t subscribe to any particular views, and like to apply logic to all claims).

…so did you think we wouldn’t get the joke then?

Apologies jakez … I wasn’t trying to explain the joke, per se. The comment got me thinking about the differences, and I thought it might be worth pointing out. No offense intended.

Why? They would be insane.

They should do well in Canberra, what with us having higher education levels.

I don’t think they’d be game to…

If I start an Agnostic ‘Church’ do you think anyone would join to discuss all things Agnostic?

…exploring ideas from an atheist perspective…

How does this differ from the perspective of the majority of Australians?

deezagood you took the only joke I have in my bag of goodies.
