    Hi,
    Just a straw poll would you be interesting in attending an A&A social night?
    I would suggest it would be open to our theist friends who frequent the forum.

    I'd be up for it. Though I have a feeling that the turn out would be quite low. Especially from the theists...

    Well, as long as it wasn't organized for sunday morning, I can't imagine why, unless rules to abjure from alcohol are stuck to :) It'd be interesting to meet up, not talk about religion, then try to pin logins to people.

    Of course, if the meeting was in a pub, you might get a few strange looks if you went up to the barman and asked him where the AA meeting was happening...

    Considering the ... ahem ... "heat" that many of our discussions devolve into do you think this is such a good idea?

    It's Religion that causes all the fights not atheism!

    I imagine it would be very interesting actually. Theres a lot of clever people on these here boards...crazy people but clever nonetheless.

    I think most posters are able to disagree with one another & still remain civil & good humoured. The ones who specialise in being abusive probably wouldn't get away with it in a group setting anyway, everyone would just tell them to stop being such a pratt.

    I would be happy to participate in such a gathering.

    No, especially if you are going Tim.
    LOL

    I put down maybe. Sometime things work better online. Besides I don't want to ruin the delusion that you're all actually hot chicks in spandex. (I can it The Bod Delusion).

    Maybe we could meet in Asiaprod's place, or least get him on satellite linkup. :D

    Well the Calgary Stampede starts next week and our church is having a Stampeded breakfast on July 14th?

    I wish I could be there, I'd love to meet all of you.:)

    Then TR and I could discuss the ternary logic table.

    You guys are forgetting the most important question

    Will there be women there?

    Atheists women? :eek:

    Ok, keep the feedback coming. Should be a great experience of lively intelligent discussion and debate.
    I need suggestions for venues and time etc.?
    The Lord Edward pub is one venue I can think off. Obviously we want somewhere with seats etc.

    That would be kick ass. Can I ban people someone over satellite too, a new boards first, any volunteers!


  • Registered Users Posts: 443 ✭✭Fallen Seraph


    I would certainly be interested. Unfortunately it'd be unlikely that I'd actually be able to attend; I find myself working rather unsocial hours. :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,371 ✭✭✭✭Zillah


    I'm 6'6". This could be fun ^_^

    Delusion? I'm actually a 5' 9'' woman of Latino extraction with a keen interest in spandex and spandex related products. I'm seeking a soulful man willing to discuss the non-existence of an Abrahamic creator god.

    We could all bond emotionally at this get together over a game of "strip belief" where we have to shed a piece of clothing for each irrational belief we hold.

    I'm a little iffy about meeting people from the interweb, that and the fact that Bluewolf is making wild claims that he is in fact a girl scares me.

    We all know you are a bald fat guy sitting in a basement somewhere in a dirty t-shirt and soiled boxers ... just like the rest of us!

    Cool... an evening to discuss how closely related to monkeys we all are...

    Count me in.

    If it turns out we are women why don't we just talk about shoes *
    Suggesting next Friday evening because it is the 13th. I thought that might fit in with the fact we are a very superstituos bunch.

    * this is a ridiculous bad joke, apologies. I withdraw it.

    I'm going to turn up and wave my Bible and lump of the true cross in all your your faces whilst also singing 'Bring in the sheaves'.
