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.

  • So Tillman was the only one who kept his head, he was later killed by friendly fire from bigoted Christian soldiers, the military didn't want to investigate and tried to cover up, presented him as a spiritual warrior while a colonel mocked him and his family for being atheists....

    Yeah, Christians sure are better than atheists. : (

  • @MrLittletomdj happy to help.

    did you know there is actually a(rather incomplete) account of the ancient days when everyone knew his noodliness, its described in the loose canon(like the formal canon but it can change).

  • @millitantatheist1 I just wanted to say thanks for bringing the concept of "pastafarianism" into my life. I've not heard it before and now all I'm doind is thinking up spaghetti monster related theological puns! ... wait...

    Rest in Pasta!... nope that was rubbish...

    The ten condiments!??... Better but still a bit crap... errrr...

    The book of raviolitions!!!..??ummm... Give me a day or two, I'll think up something funny! =/

  • no religion is a good religion..the greatest military strategy is devide an conquer..if i wanted to control the world i would crusade around the planet introducing a type of religion, and crusade again with a diffrent type religion, do it enough times and over time you will see what see today....create enough chaos that man will never unite to progress... those that created that chaos are benifiting from it now....nwo

  • @MultiWingnut hmm... i must have misremembered(something just got admitted), i was correct about satanism, right?

    on a side note, i am offended that the great religion of pastafarianism is not adequately represented, how about some tolerance?

  • @millitantatheist1 I just checked the approved faith emblems in the Arlington national cemetery. Pastafarianism is not listed.

  • @millitantatheist1 Pastafarian it is XD

  • @MultiWingnut yes, and yes.

    you can even be identified as satanist, or pastafarian.
