Just as I finished uploading the latest episode of the podcast, I received a call from Asheville GreenWorks informing me that our WNC Atheists sign for Adopt-a-Street had been vandalized. To be honest, I'm more surprised that it lasted three months unscathed.

Anyone who signed the petition to remove the phrase "Under God" from the Pledge of Allegiance probably received the official White House response in their inbox yesterday. The response was written by Joshua DuBois, Executive Director of the Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships.

Corrections
I posted this originally on 28 October 2011 and then received some feedback from John Shook. I've tried to make some corrections (5 Nov 2011).
CFI Institute in Tallahassee was Awesome
Midway through the month I had the pleasure of dining with EllenBeth Wachs, Rebecca Watson, John Shook, and Richard Carrier after the CFI institute in Tallahassee. EllenBeth is not as well known on the national stage as the others, but her recent arrests by atheist-hating fundi-Christian sherriff Grady Judd did make the New York Times. It's all thanks to EllenBeth, president of the Humanists of Florida Association, that I was invited to share in dinner. And it's all thanks to Rebecca Watson that we persuaded the waiter to turn four free-glass-of-wine coupons into one free bottle of wine. It was something dark red, and delicious. But now, on to the Institute.

When Mark put out a call for a co-host for Human Tales, I knew that I had to apply. I applied, not because I felt that I had something to offer, but because I saw an incredible potential in this thing that Mark has put together, and this was my chance to be a part of it.

My much too kind response to this. She was a friend.
Strawman: A logical fallacy that attacks an argument that was never made:
"Atheism" says nothing about about the origins of the universe or life. Atheism is merely a disbelief supernaturalism. Atheism is disbelief in magic. Read the rest of this entry »
