Being an "atheist" seems to be going out of fashion as fast as it came in.
whatever... GAC 2010 was fun. Thought provoking speakers , humour, alcohol and Melbourne is a lively place to visit.

So I'm going back this year.
http://www.atheistconvention.org.au/program/

The program is unfinished, which is a bit fucking slack. But Dawkins, Dennett, Harris are headlining and Ben Elton has just signed up

Let me know if you want to catch up for a beer.
I'm there Thursday - Monday

Bloody atheists! >:[ All they do is swap baby recipes and worship Darwin! Still, anything is better than theism, so I suppose I will turn up again. :hmmm:

I hate Melbourne and by extension all Melbournians with a passion and you couldn't pay me to attend. :stuckup:

Or

I haven't got the money to go this year so maybe next time :(

I will do my atheist bit by being much less smart than Dawkins etc on the day, and just as right. Hooray for me, the shop assistant!

If there are any Mindromp/Talk Rat types who want a table together, Loki over at the AFA forums is organising them.

Railroad tracks in the sky page 1

Mysturji 8th February 2012, 07:01 PM When I was a little kid, I used to like to imagine that high-flying jets leaving vapour trails behind them were laying railroad tracks in the sky, and that behind every such plane was a sky-train. Now, decades later, I still think that is a remarkably poetic image to spring from the mind of a little boy. In the interest of balance however, I should admit that I also liked to imagine - when taking a piss - that any remnant of toilet paper (or anything else) in the toilet was an enemy marine base, and that my penis was an enormously powerful space-based orbital laser with orders to destroy the base. What childhood imaginings do you remember? divagreen 8th February 2012, 07:08 PM I used to pretend my crayons were people and had whole cities made out of cardboard boxes and wore paper clothes. They even had a solid disco gold show and price is right games and a geneology chart. Pretty sure my parents thought that I was dumb and that I just did not kn...
