Atheism Plus/Free Thought Blogs (FTB)

[Acleron]

That would be iAtheism, which is a self-contradiction because Atheism explicitly rejects the notion that Steve Jobs was a god.

If Atheism^√2 is irrational then
ok
else
Atheism√2

I see what you did there

Actually, the segment on TAM did not come across as objective at all. For example, SurlyAmy's address being posted: this was part of an ongoing tussle where Amy accused a certain blogger of copyright infringement for using a picture of a SurlyRamic in his comments on the TAM kerfuffle; when he countered with a fair-use claim, he was accused of doing it only to get Amy's address; he countered that by showing that her address was already freely available online. Which it was. The entire year of Egate back'n'forth was boiled down to Skepchick being victimized for daring to demand safety and equality for women. Which it was not.

Sigh.

That was Justin Vacula. His side of the story can be read here with a followup here.

The DMCA notice was a transparent attempt to remove a blog post she didn't like. Ironically, this tactic is a favorite of creationists like Kent Hovind and some conspiracy theorists I could name to silence critics. Amy filed another DCMA notice against a different critical blogger recently who was "harassing" her by publishing a photograph of her and PZ Myers.

Im gonna start the Atheism++ movement. It's just atheism, but you must love bacon.

Atheism² is exponentially better than Atheism+.

Atheism+ should have been Atheism^√2.

Give it up, folks. It can be proven that there is no recursively enumerable scheme for naming all the possible varieties of atheism.

That said, I think "A†" has a certain potential, perhaps for people who refuse to be categorized. It's atheism, plus Jesus. Any takers?

There is no character sequence for his noodliness, this is discrimination!

Won't work! At a Swedish forum discussing/ridiculing aplus, one guy started Atheism++ which is atheism but also liking dogs.

Perhaps an inquisition can sort it out?

ETA: Let me just say that Atheism+ is the most stupid idea Ive heard in a long, long time...... I think that the fact that PZ et al cant see it must be evidence for mass head trauma of some kind. Im just waiting for the "sooo....... it ended up being a really bad idea" thread.

It was bad from the start, but really went ******* crazy with Richard Carrier's post...

How ridiculous.

Everybody knows that if you want it to take off on the web, it's got to be cats. It has to be atheism + cats. And maybe bacon, too.

Well, that's clearly insane, as all True Rational Atheists are obviously Cat People.

I'll get right on that.

I'm in. I like cats and bacon, AND my cats like bacon.

If you decline to join A+cats, you will be branded as a cat hater, blocked and shunned.

 

[The Big Dog]

Atheism/0

It is atheism, except you divide by zero.

Which brings about the End Times of Jesus. So it is pretty cool.

Damnit, I'm more of a dog and ferret person...

Atheism^∞ then.

Douchebag!

That's the bacon symbol

How about A#?

Because atheists are sharper than others...

 

[devnull]

That's not a bad idea. We could start a movement whereby everyone realizes atheism just means a lack of belief in a deity..... And we're all smart and exclusive and can abuse people for disagreeing.

Also, there must be cake.

Btw,I can't believe Matt D got involved with this nonsense.
