Atheism is something that has been with us for a long time,
often delegated to the sidelines of discussion if not outrighly
ignored. I find the subject interesting because I had shared
these considerations for many years without being able to
eludicate them until quite recently.
The last two are Usenet NewsGroups which I have been reading as newsgroups using Thunderbird, not via the addresses posted
As with anything that I read on Google Groups I use a wonderful Greasemonkey script that implements a killfile to remove the blantently obvious trolls, miscreants, and nutjobs in order to view actual content versus noise.
Google Groups Plus and Google Groups Killfile are two useful GreaseMonkey scripts for dealing with Google Groups.
