The Sunday Assembly

From the Guardian on-line:.  Sounds like the Sunday Assembly folks are taking a page from the HSGP playbook....although I'm not aware that we have any stand-up comics in our group, at least not on purpose.  Interesting to see how other groups are addressing the needs of the "un-churched."

What kind of atheist are you? From the Guardian newspaper.

I missed this article when it first appeared a couple of months ago, but it's still timely.  A study of US atheists has identified six types of atheists.  What kind are you?
