I'll Be Speaking for the Freethought Association in Ft. Wayne, Indiana

This coming Wednesday, May 14th, at 7 PM, I'll be doing a presentation on my book for the budding Ft. Wayne Freethought Association at the Allen County Public Library, 900 Library Plaza. If you live within driving distance I'd love to meet with you. It's to be held in Meeting Room B. The Ft. Wayne News-Sentinel did an interview with me and it will be printed on Monday or Tuesday. This is the city I was born and raised. This will mark the first time I step forward and come out as an atheist in my own area since I live within driving distance myself. Now the shit hits the fan.

All the best John, I admire your courage.

John: Thanks for what you've done. Your books and case have the advantage of the evidence, arguments, and reason. Christians have raw emotion and agnosticism. Human knowledge, validated by logic and empirical data, trumps fear and uncertainty.

Good luck John,
You won't need it though.

John- We look forward to hearing you in the city of churches. You are very much needed. Thanks for sharing your experience and theology knowledge with us! I hope we can help you sell some books.

Andy, we'll see you there, but I don't have any extra books to sell, and the ones bought on the web gain me just over a quarter a book up to a dollar. I'm doing this to help you guys get off the ground and also because it's my home town. Ft. Wayne now has an outspoken atheist who is a home grown boy. It'll be interesting to to see the reaction.

Are brainless, emotive Christians allowed too? If so...I'm totally there (that is if it was on a Saturday and not a week night).

Just in case anyone else is wondering, everyone (brainless or otherwise) is welcome to attend.

If interested, the Fort Wayne FreeThought group has a blog and a discussion board. Please engage your brain before posting to either one.

I believe the interview should be in the Tuesday evening News-Sentinel.
