The majority of atheists are humanists, they have as much of an 'ideology' as christians do despite their disagreements. Atheists tend to promote a secular humanist society. It's true that alot of leftists are atheists... it's also true that alot of intellectuals, rich people, libertarians...

Well in the case you're refering to it probably not only has to do with his belief in the non-existance of God but also his desire for people to appreciate his perspective on the matter.

Ok honey, let's do it :)

I'm not sure If I am right, to be honest I've taken different stances over even just the past 6 months. I worry about what some sort of 'atheist solidarity' movement might actually turn atheism into.

Warm their icy heart with a hot island song?

People have said the same about racism, sexism etc. Sure an atheists right to not believe is protected by law in Australia/the US etc but that's just the begining of the struggle. The second part is to change people's perceptions of atheists as a whole, get people to learn to accept that we're...

Atheism is merely disbelief in God, there are many different ways people justify such disbelief or frame it, but essentially it comes down to the same thing.

I think that's already happening and as has happened with previous movements atheists are just being told to shut up. Now there are your fair amount of atheists that agree with this, but I think we're seeing that for the most part atheists aren't willing to shut up and probably will end up...

Sorry I should have written dna testing. To me fingerprinting is fairly pointless as the indonesians carelessly contaminated the outer bag and a lack of her fingerprints proves nothing.

That's fine, why should we believe her? I see no reason to imagine why this security officer would lie, the money to be gained from lying about this is.... well, not there. http://www.abc.net.au/news/newsitems/200612/s1805970.htm http://www.news.com.au/story/0,23599,21222487-2,00.html The...

I agree they're not as strong. True. It is speculation. Perhaps some testimony from an Australian drug squad could assist, but I'd be willing to not even bring up this point. It is just a counter to the demand of "proof why I might have done it". From what I've heard they're not very strong.

Yea... I find it interesting that most (usually ACA or TT) surveys assessing whether 'money makes you happy' simply looks at income, not hours of work/type of work etc. Of course money is a great accessorie to happiness, but getting it isn't a happy matter at all.

Instead you could just play tetris?

Would you actually want to get debnam into power though? Or just scare them a little?

Yup done. Did this paper explain exactly why the 'manipulation' lead to the disappearance of problems (i.e. causation?) did they blind it against regular massage to account for placebo? Do we know how long the symptoms disappear for? How long do they 'return to normal' for? How long are these...

Ok.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiropractic#Scientific_investigation_of_chiropractic At best Chiropractors are good at relieving lower back pain and headaches. If you want a more bias source: http://www.chirobase.org/ Well... with children? I'd never let a chiropractor near them...

Sorry I got that wrong, but at the very least she has worked in a surf shop (sounds like her mum either works their constantly or owns the place?) and would have contact with expats reguardless. - There is no evidence of a drug smuggling ring in Australian airports using unwitting stooges...

Since when can Chiropractors cure a loss of appetite? The BEST they can do is give a good massage and manipulate your bones a little. Any chriopractor telling you they can cure illnesses isn't fit to be touching your body.

Honestly if you can't tell them apart it's nothing but the alure of being 'different' or something that makes you appreciate them more (perhaps a bit of nostalgia?)

- That they're clean people. - That corby is innocent. - The attacks on the Australian Government. - The attacks on the Indonesian Justice System. - etc
