The 2010 Global Atheist Convention is almost here, in only a few days time myself and other atheists from all over Australia and the world will be descending on Melbourne for “The Rise of Atheism” convention.
Such a large gathering of free-thinking individuals is bound to attract some attention, and indeed it has the convention is already sparking a considerable backlash before it has even started. But the convention is going ahead no matter how much the creationists attempt to disrupt things. It is time for human civilisation to move on from the darkages and now Science and Reason are pushing back against religion that has always dominated main stream society, Atheism is on the rise.
