Irish Atheist

An open-exchange base for Irish Dissenters. Hopefully, a platform enabling Ireland's non-believers to make contact, exchanging opinions and experiences, at least until I become aware of a more competent platform.

About Me

Name:
Location: Dublin, Ireland

Born in Summerhill, a centre-city slum. Now 63, I remember the '60s as a time of economic relaxation in Ireland, with greater freedom of expression being taken for granted. Of course, abortion and euthanasia were still very much taboo subjects, but merely hurdles which would be jumped eventually. The '70s would be Socialist! How wrong we were back then.

This year so far has seen a lot of encouraging material for brights-secularists- rationalists- atheists- freethinkers- reasonable people in other words.
For me it began with TV programmes (2) featuring Richard Dawkins, plus his book The Ancestor's Tale.
I still had a backlog carried over from the Dover School Board case, but this was added to when I discovered the Point of Inquiry podcasts, now totalling 22/23.
Now I'm hoping to receive a copy of the waroneaster DVD entitled
The God Who Wasn't There.
With all this great material to peruse and promote in my own humble way, I may not get much time for personal blogs - but that's just fine by me!
