    IDEA: A Reasonable Scientific Journal

    Wouldn't it be fun if we had our own academic, open-sourced journal that had a system where users could collaborate, fact-and-proof-check submitted papers based on our collaborative expertise over the years, and publish research of note? We could even perhaps branch out and ask for...

    Getting things rolling again

    Okay okay okay. Let's set our clocks to GMT/Zulu and work from there. Availability to talk at 12:00 GMT on Sunday? That will be 22:00 on Saturday here in Hawaii. Takers?

    Getting things rolling again

    Oh. I'm sorry, I didn't glean that from the post. What's the usual show format right now? And are we still going to use Skype? If so, what's the group?

    Marijuana Legalization

    Say what you will about the United States, but as far as "cultural trends" go America has a good way of making the ready of the world play silly games with arbitrary rules. I think weed is too powerful for younger teens though - not on a health level, but on a social responsibility level. Say...

    Can an atheist pray?

    Devil's Advocate: It is as much stimuli as it is culturally ingrained into us. No definitive answer either way. But I will always lend weight to stimuli over metaphysical entity. The most likely reason for our reactive prayers is as a stress relief mechanism. Shit, it could be a genetic tie in...

    Marijuana Legalization

    As of today, 25 out of the 50 states of the United States have approved Marijuana reform by giving it some form of use and decriminalization. 5 of those have full, unbridled use. Let's open the dialogue for discussion about the legalizing of Marijuana. The ethics, the impact on society as a...

    Getting things rolling again

    Well shit. The free thinking community was the first to actually be hit by and experience extreme DMCA abuse on YouTube. It would be interesting to talk politics and things from the millions country perspective though. My view on the League and other such sites is that they have drive as long...

    Getting things rolling again

    I may be lurking, but I want to help. It's summer. Hit me up about research/planning/writing/speaking or whatever you may need from me. I pop in here from time to time, but a steady network would be killer for coordinating anything with me. You guys got a Facebook funnel or other common...

    I'm Back...

    And here to lurk and stay. I'm in college now, fixing to tackle an Oceanography degree at UH Manoa. The Navy was rough. College is rough. But I'm steadily seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I'll be lurking and, from time-to-time, posting my two cents. It's good to be home.

    Atheistic Iconoclasm

    You're joking right? Religious activism in America is at a startling low - it's more of party games than anything. DADT was repealed. No public schools have mandatory prayer legally anymore. There's not even an all-encompassing state religion unlike some European Countries still have. It's the...

    Excavating The Empty Tomb

    As a Theist, I required neither eye openers nor restraints. I would appreciate the lack of such slights. But, honestly, it is an adequate scientific analysis and logical inquiry into the concept and history of "Resurrection" as an actual event.

    Something to look into

    The problem with that, James, is that you may as well test for any undiagnosed illness... The diagnosis for this particular one requires a sleep study. A sleep study is expensive, and to perform it for 30 million people would see every hospital in Europe jammed full for months - you may as well...

    Leviticus 14 Challenge

    Absolutely not. We're trolling Christians. :roll:

    ** STICKY ** Post any notable quotes you can find here.

    Two friends of mine were having a discussion in regards to banning things that people like to do that, though are known to be hazardous to health and publicly known, they choose to do so anyways. (Cigarettes, drinking, narcotics, etc.) One friend said: "Look, people don't have the right to be...

    Atheistic Iconoclasm

    Good to see that our track record of discussions with crazies is untouched. Jolly good.

    Mars One seeks applicants

    Wow. They've solved that whole "radiation killing you before you even get the joy of touching down on Mars" thing already? Cool.

    Boston bombings

    Most likely domestic terrorists - if they were an international group it wouldn't have taken so long for us to have heard of a major public release. They used Pressure Cookers... It's a devilishly simple concept that amplifies an explosive by the simple fact that massive pressure buildup in a...

    Warlight Strategy Game

    good morning, LoR! Recently I've been delving into traditional strategy games and I stumbled onto the website http://warlight.com which hosts fabulous Risk-esque strategy games that involve the movement of troops and the use of acquired utilities. When I'm bored I set up a custom game called...

    Setting up a Religious "Safe Zone" Tent - Atheism Convention

    Re: Setting up a Religious "Safe Zone" Tent - Atheism Conven There are also atheists who are not feminists, so why do you align yourself with them/us in that instance? Why don't you join an organization that is not particularly atheist, but actually feminist and participate in their...
