Stop Bashing Christians Debate
July 24, 2010 at 10:51 am
Following on from last years Atheist Forums meetup, which was at the IQ² debate, 'Is Atheism The New Fundamentalism', which we won by the way, we now have another opportunity to repeat the fun and games.

The latest debate is to be held at the Royal Geographical Society in London is titled 'STOP BASHING CHRISTIANS! BRITAIN HAS BECOME AN ANTI-CHRISTIAN COUNTRY' and will be held on the 3rd of November this year.

No doubt we'll meet up in a pub before hand and then stagger back there after the debate. I'll leave that side to Adrian as he seems to be the pub kind of guy Great

Anyway, what I would like to know is how many people are likely to attend what, if any, help people might need for transport, staying in London overnight etc.

I'll be travelling up from Gosport with my daughter (and possibly Retorth) so I should have room for a couple Big Grin

Ah man! I would love to go to this, but there is no way my car would make it all the way to London. Is there any chance it will be recorded?

I think it is, it's broadcast live over the internet (I think).

It might also be on Youtube very soon after it's finished.

Unfortunately, it's very unlikely that I'll be able to come. I will, however, watch it either live or on YouTube (probably the latter).

What a fucking cheek!

I've never bashed a Christian in my life. Nor have I ever set fire to one or even run one over in my car, although sorely temped on a daily basis for last 30 years.

This is not tolerance. It is fear of being incarcerated and becoming the wife of a 300 lb biker.


PS: I'm not anti Christian. I'm just anti fuckwit. Not my fault if most of the fuckwits I run across are also Christian. EG Godhead was a perfect example.
