group request

[pikatore]

i'd like to create a new group.

Infidels United

so atheists, agnostic, and general non-theists can join it.

pretty please.

EDIT: With sugar on top.

EDIT: And sex on request (females and animals only).

[Jason]

The requirement for a new group is 10 petition members.

[pikatore]

alright. will get it. do i just need to get 10 members to post on this thread? or what

[Jason]

Just gather them somehow and let me know who.

[iclaudius]

What exactly would this group do?

[SoylentGreen]

and how does one join?

[Chris]

I would join a strictly atheist group

[pikatore]

and how does one join?

i take it you want to join?

[pikatore]

What exactly would this group do?

plently of things. excursions to the museum, a picnic her and there...

ok im an idiot.

at first strut around with the label, but then, if a group forum is opened, we can have some seriously deep inter-atheist arguments.

[ZNFYRH]

Arguments about aspects of atheism, or just a place where atheists can argue anything?

I'd be interested as someone who is classified as "agnostic".

[iclaudius]

I do not think strict agnostics should be allowed. It's ok to acknowledge the possibility that God exists, but it seems non-conducive to the group mantra to refuse to acknowledge that we also have no reason to entertain the concept of God in the first place. Toothfairy agnostics only. Also, theoretically, any member of any religion could be an infidel, so why only stop at the agnostics, atheists, and non-theists? Perhaps we should find a better-fitting title.

[pikatore]

No, it's a catchy title. I once got in a religious debate with a Muslim, and he said he considered me lower than a Christian, because at least Christians acknowledge there is a god.

There will be plently of debate in the thread between the essentially 'atheistic' stances (which includes agnosticism as well).
