The list needs only six more names to reach three hundred. I'd like to see it
reach this total by Monday. Anyone who has been putting off writing in to join
the list, now is the time. And, many thanks to all those who have already
joined. Many people have been truly surprised by the number of people who have
joined already. There are a lot more atheists and agnostics in these newsgroups
than many people ever suspected.

Come to think of it - I never did get a number. Now it is possible that
you have already placed me on the list from my previous posts. If that is
the case I would like to know my number. If it is not the case I am
hoping that you'll hold off numbering me until you get to 300. I am not
sure why that is - it has something to do with my ego.
If the numbering is completely arbuitrary I would like 666, only to scare
Saved Soul, who claimed that I was the antichrist. 69 is a good number,
for personal reasons, I am sure you wouldn't understand. Either way I
humbly request my place among the heathens of the net.

I would like to congratulate everyone who responded to Mickey's list,
I am impressed with the sense of community. I was not surprised to
see you hit 300 and if Mickey is willing to keep counting, you will
probably hit 500 by the end of the year. Maybe we could keep track
of it like the DJIA, but I'm not much of a betting man.
Anyway, I just wanted to offer you all a congratulatory slap on the
back. Anytime someone reaches a goal, we should all be willing to
say, good job.

Hi Mickey.
I used to be a very fervent atheist, and i drop into t.o. from time to
time, and i seem to get a lot of cross posted articles from a.a. I have
even had many provocative discussions. I know you've already reached
your goal, but you can add my name to your list, if you think its
appropriate.
Peace.

300 was a goal to be reached by March 17th. We reached it only half an hour into
this morning. But, the list will continue for as long as people want it. The
more names on the list the better. The atheist/agnostic list now includes Scott
Wilcox #313. Welcome to the list!

Scott, are you an atheist or an agnostic? I have to remember to ask
people this when they write in. I keep forgetting.

I'd also like to thank everyone who responded and hope that we hear
from many more.
Thank you for your kind words, Doug.

Now, to find the time to type the whole thing up!
Well, I still havn't seen the original post that triggered this,
so I don't know exactly what this list is. (I'm sure that the
Internet violates causality in a big way!!). Is this supposed
to be a list of atheists posting to a.a? Well, I read talk.origins,
and so end up reading (and sometimes posting) to crossposted threads,
so does that count? If so, count me in.

If not, you can list me too. If I get cornered to decide what

Michelle, Scott is, by any definition, a fundamentalist, BTW. Given
his posting habits on t.o, I'm not even sure if _I_ would even put him
in the friends list. (I also wouldn't put him in the killfile, at
least I haven't done so yet, so he must not be really annoying.)

The list started out in alt.atheism as a reaction to a fundy who said that there
were only three atheists in the newsgroup, since they were all that responded to
him - totally missing the point with true fundy finesse (sarcasm intentional.)
When someone suggested starting this list, I said that I would do it.
The list is open to all atheists (including agnostics) from any newsgroup on the
net. It started in alt.atheism, spread to the above listed groups and now has
been opened to all atheists and agnostics who post or lurk on the net.
The count is currently 325.
Welcome to the alt.atheism atheist list, #326.
Anyone who wants to join the list, please give your name or nickname, whether
you are a strong or weak atheist or agnostic and your home newsgroup.
This list may have started as a bit of a joke, but it has grown into a true
bonding experience for many of us. There is no reason why individual atheists or
agnostics should feel alone when there are so many of us all over the place.

It's sitting on my desk, at the moment, growing names. The count is currently
325. You are #226.
I'd like to see your list to compare it to the one I have so far. I wonder how
many of the same names will show up on both.
I'll be publishing my list in alt.atheism this week.

You're being held accountable you detestable fucking maggot.

More atheists are in here than that. In case you hadn't noticed, the list

That's something you read into it. Probably because you now feel

Spent some time on DejaNews, can't find any such admissions. There have
been, appearantly, quite a few forged posts - spoofing both sides, usually
quite viciously - but nothing I could call a forged post to bolster the
athiest count, not by any stretch of the immagination.

I guess it really SUCKS to be a human, what with not being perfect an'
all. But the very same thing can be said of all sides.

In your own mind, of course. When others look at the same data, they can come to their
own conslusions.

posting copies of the real nameless's posts. This is the first time I have seen that

Not in the slightest...it is because someone thinks you are a christian

Wow, some logic. If an atheist and agnostic"posts to alt.skeptic and

Look. If I am to argue with you, then I must take up a contrary position!
Yes but that's not just saying, "no it isn't."
Yes it is.
No it isn't.

Scared Fundie: Oh my God, there's more than three out there.
McCoy (defender of light, truth and the fundie way): Doan worry. There
only three. Every one of them is posting like mad, creating fake
atheists.
Relieved Fundie: Thank you, oh real McCoy.

Faith and trust ! This is rich coming from McCoy. Fundies never rely

>I'm new to this. Is this a list to advertise your atheism or is there
>another reason.
The list is just one way for atheists to know that we are not alone. Several
lurkers have started posting in alt.atheism since the list began, and they are
bringing new life to the group. I hope that more join in as the list increases.
As far as atheism is concerned, there is nothing to advertise. Becoming an
atheist is something that an individual has to do on their own. They can get
information from people, books, etc., but the final decision is one that has to
be made alone.
There is also a friends list for deists or theists who support our right to
believe or disbelieve as we choose. And, we support their right to do the same.
And, there is a killfile list of theists who came to alt.atheism purely for the
purpose of 'converting the heathen'. Such invaders always fail in their mission
and most just fade away. But, there is a small group of them that refuse to
leave and only remain to act in the most obnoxious ways they can. This last
small group goes into the killfile list. They are also called twits.
Any theist or diest who comes to alt.atheism for the purpose of discussion and
debate is welcome. Several have become regular members of the group. Some of
them go after the invaders just as strongly as we atheists do.
I hope this answers your question.
I'm not deleting the other newsgroups, since I don't know which one you are
posting from. Please direct questions about the list only to alt.atheism.
