Just scratching the surface.....
July 30, 2014 at 6:30 am
Hello everyone! I would like to talk about the number of atheist in the world. Obviously we (atheists) are vastly outnumbered by the religious God fearing community. However the atheist community is growing slowly but surely. I think we are a long way off from having the numbers to make any serious influence in the world. Atheists numbers are just beginning to scratch the surface of the old ways. I like to think that we atheists of today are the pioneers of a new world and society. That being said I would like to close this with a quote that I love: "At every crossway on the road that leads to the future, each progressive spirit is opposed by a thousand men appointed to guard the past".

Welcome
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you

Welcome!
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
