What is The Atheist Experience?

The Atheist Experience is a weekly cable access television show in Austin, Texas geared at an atheist and non-atheist audience. The Atheist Experience is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin (ACA), a nonprofit educational corporation to develop and support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing and friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of state-church separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists and to work with other organizations in pursuit of common goals.

  • "If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed. “ Albert Einstein

  • What a selfish, egocentric old fart. If there is a heaven, I'm sure it's a place for people who are inherently good, not people who need an incentive to be good.

  • @mrtadreamer They are.

  • @mrtadreamer If God is good, then why are some people who worship him, evil?

  • if atheist can be good without God, then why aren't they?

  • An atheist realizes that life on Earth is what you have, and then you're done. What that means is that our lasting legacy as atheists will not be one that comes in an afterlife, it will be what we leave behind of ourselves after we die.

    My main focus is that my children have more opportunities than I had, because that is the main way I can leave a positive legacy. I can teach them to treat others right. I can impress upon them the importance of improving the situation of their own children

  • So maybe on the spectrum you are more good than bad. At least in human stadards. okay. I do not know you but I bet you are. I am also. However I think that is still far away from being inherently good.

  • @MrBlackhaw People who care about other people's feelings and the quality of human life in general that they consciously refuse to lie, cheat, steal, or trick people, or take pleasure from the misfortune of others, or benefit from an abuse of power, even when they know they can get away with it. People like me.

  • @VerumAdNauseam Who are inherently good?

  • in one sense No one lives a good and moral life without God. And no one lives a good and moral life without giving praise to their creator. No matter what supposed good things one does if that person does not love God then they are not moral. Christians only love God because of God's grace. so christians are not supererior.
