Not only have they not added anything to the pot, I don't think they set the darn thing up right. Their clock isn't counting down. Two days in, it's still at 40 days. I'm really thinking of donating and getting Grimalkin to make me a color poster of Shermer and PZ making out. But I'm afraid zizzle will refuse to make it, by claiming it's obscene or something, and I'll lose my donation with nothing to show for it. Their donation set-up is listed as they keep the money even if they don't make their fundraising goal. Wonder who keeps the proceeds if they don't make the goal.

Since humanism (judging from their documents) includes atheism and skepticism, the plussers are essentially saying that they are humanists. This is novel how? There are plenty of atheists who are humanists, and there are many humanist organizations worldwide. What purpose does a+ serve?

They get to claim the Golden Ticket of harassment and prejudice without actually being harassed or prejudiced against. Also without actually doing anything helpful for humanity.

He has obviously not seen the A+ forum, either that or he is attempting to resurrect A+ idea by rebooting it to ignore the original stated nonsense.

Bwahahahahahaha!!!! I'm was going before, I certainly going now!!! It's like getting new toys to play with on Xmas morning!!



Yeah....I doubt $700 would even get one A+ nutter there. This demonstrates the alternate reality these people live in. Pick whatever city you want, then price a ticket to KC, St Louis, Tulsa, Little Rock. Now add $200-$300 to connect to Springfield. Too much? OK, now you have to rent your scholarship "winner" a car. And pay for their gas. And hotel room (although I suppose they could stay with a host family - as long as they're not white!).

This is a group that probably doesn't have a net worth of $700 amongst all 15 of them. So, yeah....



The greatest fun I'll have is watching the look on their faces when they realize their little "harassment" policy doesn't apply in the real world, i.e. outside the boundaries of Skepticon. Now, I'm certainly not going to harass any of them (using the real world, legal definition of harassment), but imagine some local groping them in the bar (assuming they're hot - no, wait...LOL!! I kill me)...what do they do? Show the hillbilly a copy of the A+ anti-harassment policy? The though of witnessing something like this makes me cackle with glee!!!

The thought of seeing someone sexually harassed makes you cackle in glee? Glad I don't have your sense of humor.

I suspect these idiots spend most of their time talking about all the things they're going to do, and very little of it actually doing things. Because that would require leaving your basement safe zone and venturing out into Rapeland.

Rapeland started to do much better business once it was bought up by Disney...

I think I have the same username on atheismplus, the slymepit and here...but it is different from the twitter name because "diogenes" was taken...that's probably my mistake if I'm looking for a forum membership to twitter block link. Right now it is just a probe to see if simply following the "wrong people"...some of which I follow on youtube anyway...is an appropriate level of wrongthinking to get blocked.
