		<description>Not that anyone would listen to me, so for what it&#039;s worth...&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Drop your opposition to school vouchers.  It&#039;s unconscionable that a group of elitists would force children to stay in failing public schools.  Education is the only path to true success and freedom.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Drop your opposition to the free flow of ideas and thoughts. Allow true freedom within the science classroom.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Use business, membership dues or fundraisers finance AA, instead of  public tax money via the courts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Recognize the real religion that is a threat to Western Civilization and act upon it.  This is not to say one cannot disagree with religion in general.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Be politically neutral.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

		<description>The American Atheist web site, it&#039;s like it is stuck in a xtian universe, i.e. Never Changing. About every four to six weeks do I go to the website because there isn&#039;t any new items posted. </description>

		<description>Please explain, in truthful terms, why Ellen was fired, how you want the organization to change, where you see it going.&lt;br /&gt;
Please explain why you chose to fire Ellen in the midst of her Freedom March.  This appears kinda cruel.&lt;br /&gt;
Please advise how the Board becomes the Board.  Through what process are Board members elected/appointed,divined???&lt;br /&gt;
How does the President become the President?  Are there terms of service or does one serve at the pleasure of the Board?&lt;br /&gt;
Thank you. </description>

		<description>Constructive criticism intended, a monthly publication that alerts us to all kinds of church/state violations and science news.  I was a member and thought the bimonthly magazine was so so.  Honest feedback.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Don&#039;t feed the troll!</description>

		<description>1. Why do we have a new leader?&lt;br /&gt;
2. Why were we told Ellen &quot;left&quot; if she was fired?&lt;br /&gt;
3. Exactly what is this &quot;new direction&quot; we&#039;re taking?&lt;br /&gt;
4. Why don&#039;t members have any input?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I like very much that the organization provides this blog.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I appreciate the magazine, but it contains little about the actual workings of the organization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
I don&#039;t like that my membership affords no voice in the decision making process of major matters such as this move with Ellen. Members could have been notified of any concerns the board had, with their solutions offered, and we could have been at least polled on our opinion of the matter.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&#039;s what I can think of before I&#039;ve finished my first cup of coffee.</description>

		<description>Be tolerant of atheists with convservative political views. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While I disagree with Phreedm&#039;s religious views, his opinions regarding school choice, free thought are worth considering and abusing tax dollars are worth considering. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Regarding the web site:&lt;/b&gt; It&#039;s seldom updated. Most every day there are dozens of news items relating to atheists. I post these on my web site via RSS feed. Few see them, however, because the new site has yet to gain traction. Perhaps a volunteer could be found to manually post the most significant news stories each day.&lt;br /&gt;
