Nor do I. But it would be a great thing to unite like once in a week locally to have fun. We need to keep sane too. Religions have festivals, gatherings and such, why not us?Of course the answer is we're nothing like religious people, but think of changing the world, if we stay and do nothing, we will be more oppressed sooner or later by religion. So why not now?
Why not us? because we have very little in common. The only thing atheists have in common is the lack of a belief in god. But I wouldn't mind joining book clubs. I think it'd be cool if in every neighbourhood there're things like weekly book clubs, astronomy club, history club, things like that. So you go every Sunday, learn something new or teach something, and then have lunch together. So that these sort of social activity is available to the nonreligious. But atheist gatherings, I mean, what do you do there?
Edit: Probably not a good idea to have those kinda clubs on Sunday, that excludes believers. I don't like segregating religious and nonreligious, I want the religious to learn how to coexist with others and not push their ideas on others.
