I was going to be speaking at a megachurch just outside Detroit on Wednesday night (it’s an onstage interview/book signing) and was hoping we could get word out about it to SSA members and AA groups in that area.

Good Luck with your speaking engagement! I’m amazed that the church is hosting this.
Some churches must be more open-minded than I give them credit for. From reading The Friendly Atheist’s website and his book I conclude that The Friendly Atheist is more tolerant of religion than I am.
Friendly Atheist
Do report back!
Too friendly!
I have to soil myself by stepping inside of a baptist church to vote on 11/01…and I’m furious about it.
Wear an atheist t shirt to the polling place then. I would. Cafe Press has some great designs (http://shop.cafepress.com/atheism)
Normally I have to enter a monstrosity of a church to vote (Chapel Hill Bible Church) but since I am planning to vote early again this time I get to vote at the Morehead Planetarium on Carolinas campus. I would alway prefer to vote in a scientific building over one built on superstition.
