These sweet Wooden Letter Magnets are just the thing for your fridge. Engraving wood is easy and fun if you take the proper precautions, and soon you'll realize all the possibilities of wood crafts! Make these fun magnets for you or as a gift! You could also use this technique to make wooden keychains, jewelry, or ornaments.
- Medium sized brach
- Electric saw
- Wood burning tool
- Magnet Tape
- Hot glue gun
- Cut a medium-sized branch into coins that are about a 1/2 inch thick.
- Using a wood burning tool I simply carved the letters and numbers into the wood.
- Attach magnet tape with hot glue to the back and they are good to go! Make sure your coins are not too thick because the magnet will only hold a certain amount of weight and make sure to use hot glue or another strong adhesive even if the magnet tape is pre-sticky. The weight of the wood coins will require more adhesion than the magnet tape glue will provide.

Why isnt FARSCAPE on Blu-ray?

Re: Why isnt FARSCAPE on Blu-ray?
Kiltak wrote:
Actually a lot of older movies are being put on to DVD that were not shot in HD. If you do your homework you can find movies on Blu-Ray that go back all the way to the 80s, which were most certainly not shot in HD.
Motion pictures are typically shot on film, which has a
resolution than HDTV. Films from as far back as the beginning of motion picture history, if they've been preserved or restored to their original condition, will continue to look absolutely
in HD release on Blu-ray.
The issue is that, starting in the 1980s, video proved to be a much cheaper, more efficient method of storing and editing motion pictures. Video, however, has a drastically reduced level of resolution when compared to film
HD. In the world of television series, though, this didn't matter as much because television resolution has always been fairly low. This is why
Star Trek
(which was produced on film in the 1960s) is seeing a Blu-ray release, whereas
The Next Generation
(produced on video in the 80s and 90s) will require a complete re-editing from the film source in order to achieve HD resolution.
The question being asked in this thread is whether or not
was shot or edited on film or video. If it was shot on film but edited in video, there's a chance it could be re-edited in HD but it would likely require a complete revamp of the visual effects (and the studio might find this cost prohibitive for such a cult series). If it was edited in a medium that was a high enough resolution, though, such concerns would be moot, and a Blu-ray release would be as simple as striking a new transfer.

Concerning the Book That Is the Body of the Belovedby Gregory Orr
"Gregory Orr's new book is dazzling and timeless. Sure, the trappings of modern life appear at the edges of these poems, but their focus is so unwaveringly aimed toward the transcendent — not God, but the beloved — that we seem to slip into a less cluttered time....The effect is blinding and impressionistic, but the careful study of what is barely seen reveals more than any total picture ever could." Ted Genoways, The Virginia Quarterly Review (read the entire VQR review)
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
This book-length sequence of ecstatic, visionary lyrics recalls Rumi in its search for the beloved and its passionate belief in the healing qualities of art and beauty.
Concerning the Book That Is the Body of the Beloved is an incantatory celebration of the "Book," an imaginary and self-gathering anthology of all the lyrics — both poems and songs — ever written. Each poem highlights a distinct aspect of the human condition, and together the poems explore love, loss, restoration, the beauty of the world, the beauty of the beloved, and the mystery of poetry. The purpose and power of the Book is to help us live by reconnecting us to the world and to our emotional lives.
I put the beloved
There is nothing quite like this book — an "active anthology" in the best sense — where individuals find the poems and songs that will sustain them. Or the poems find them.
"Orr's first book since The Caged Owl: New and Selected Poems (2002) has little in common with the hushed, observant lyric that made his reputation in the 1970s; this eighth collection is, instead, a confident, mystical, expansive project, whose very clear short poems (almost 200 of them) constitute a meditation and ritual for grieving a lost beloved. The first poem invokes the Egyptian god Osiris, whose lover Isis resurrected him by collecting his scattered parts: 'We must find them...As an anthologist might collect/ All the poems that matter,' Orr intones. As he pursues that goal, however, his own poems can be overbroad in focus: 'The heart knows all/ These songs/ And a million of its own,' one poem says. 'The risk is always there,' a later poem states, 'And the challenge, too: To take it in, to feel it, and then/ To speak it back in poems and songs.' 'When the beloved dies,' he explains later, 'It's only to ask more of you,/ So you become richer from giving.' Near the end, Orr describes his own poetry as 'a silent saying/ Of all/ We hold dear.' Poems about earlier poets (Sappho, Emily Dickinson, Apollinaire) add detail but fail to change the tone." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
"Concerning the Book That Is the Body of the Beloved is, as Greg Orr's work has always been, firm and definitive, as is the first step on a ladder. But this time his book has a new and thrilling dimension. What other poet do you know who would give his work such a title — ambitious and humble at the same time? He speaks now, in these many short poems, which in their entirety are really one long poem, of mysteries, of those things — emotions, situations, mind and heart states — which are beyond the definitive. In earlier works he spoke of events that were applicable to himself perhaps, and also to some other lives, but were not general; here he speaks of the events that have no larger or more important rival in our lives — of our love and our loving, which is both general to us as humans and yet particular to each of us. Greg Orr is here a Walt Whitman without an inch of Whitman's bunting or oratory. Greg Orr is a gorgeous poet and this is a gorgeous book." Mary Oliver
"The heart of Orr's poetry, now as ever, is the enigmatic image...mystical, carnal, reflective, wry." San Francisco Review
Concerning the Book That Is the Body of the Beloved is an incantatory celebration that pushes the ecstatic lyric into epic realms. Gregory Orr discovers the Beloved in everything, everywhere, and reconnects us — in the tradition of Rumi and Hafiz — to our emotional lives. Orr's ambitious and visionary lyrics explore every dimension of what it is to be human, and this imagined "Book" is a dynamic repository of expressive forms that tells humanity's stories.

text: The Buddy Kantor wiki last edited by AmishAvenger on 06/12/13 02:50PM View full history OriginBuddy was a slapstick actor who starred in such films as, "Baggy Pants, Extra Baggy", Don't You Believe It" and "Where De Women At?", including countless others. Buddy has a reputation for being difficult to work with. Then sometime after he ranted on the Merv Douglas show about how the academy snubbed him, he was black listed from starring in movies.Many people thought he died after moving to Gotham City, but sadly he just became an alcoholic and drank all his money away. He now lives in a small dank apartment and can't even afford the rent.Major Story ArcsAuteurismBuddy is drunk in an alleyway of Gotham, thinking about the glory days when he was a somebody. He then wanders around and bumps into the Batman, but believes him to be Aston La Fong, one of his old co-stars from a movie he did years ago called "The Whispering Bat".Buddy heads home where he is confronted by his landlady, wanting the rent money, but before she can get her hands on him, the Joker, kidnaps him.The Joker dresses Buddy up like him, and wants to him to play the Joker in a biopic of his life. Buddy is reluctant at first but after realizing this is his big break agrees. Buddy goes off script alot and begins to rant, which the Joker loves. But when Buddy complains that the hired goon playing Batman is not up to his high standard the Joker agrees and take Buddy off set.The Joker takes Buddy with him on a bank robbery and gets the Batman to show up. The Joker fights the Batman while the hired goons film. Then after they escape Joker takes Buddy back to the set. There Buddy starts getting the D.T.s and Joker give him more alcohol.This makes Buddy enraged and he rants more, to the point that it even makes the Joker sleepy. After everyone is asleep, Buddy watches the film he's been acting in and decides that he needs to take the film to someone to promote it.While escaping Buddy runs into Batman and helps him capture the Joker in exchange for him going free and keeping on two of the reels. Buddy then turns the reels into a movie called "Sounds and Fury: The Angry Genius of Buddy Kantor" and wins an academy award, but is still to high and mighty to give the Joker even a screen credit. This is something that Joker promises to will come back to Buddy later.

Arthritis Pain
Years ago, arthritis was considered an inherent part of the aging process and a signal to a patient that it's time to slow down, but not so anymore. Recent research and clinical findings show that there is much more to life for arthritis patients than the traditional recommendation of bed rest and drug therapy.
Exercise Headaches
Exercise headaches usually strike in younger people, from adolescence through age 50. This type of headache usually occurs with lengthy exercise sessions. The headache usually pops up at the height of exercise and the pain typically fades when the exercise stops. However, in certain cases the exercise induced headaches can last up to two days. [...]
If you suffer from persistent or recurring headaches, it may be that your neck is the culprit (and you may not even have pain!) This cause of headache has been commonly overlooked which has often resulted in patients suffering for many years.
Physios are experts in assessing and treating neck related headache. Headaches caused [...]
Chronic Pain
Chronic pain usually falls into one of two categories:
Nociceptive pain is caused by damage to body tissue and usually described as a sharp, aching, or throbbing pain. The damage may be due to an event such as an injury or surgery or an active disease process within the tissues.
Neuropathic pain occurs when there [...]
Winter Sports Injuries
Australia is a sports-loving nation, as both participants and spectators. Australia's mild winters mean that in most parts of Australia, participation in outdoor exercise and sports can occur all year round. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS), over 60% of Australians participate in sports and exercise programs.
The Medibank Private Safe [...]
Acute Low Back Pain
Acute low back pain refers to pain in the lower back which has lasted for less than 12 weeks. The lumbar spine is the bottom section of the spine and consists of five vertebrae. Between these vertebrae are structures called discs which act as shock absorbers. There are countless muscles acting on the lumbar spine [...]
Physiotherapy treatment has a large part to play in the overall management of arthritis. The physiotherapist, as a member of your management team, is trained to understand and treat the physical aspects of the human body.
Physiotherapy for people with arthritis is aimed at:
* Reduction of pain and swelling
* Promote range [...]
Neck Pain
Neck pain is a world-wide phenomenon, it can hurt a lot, it can cost a lot and interferes with routine daily living. Its triggering factors are many and its symptoms can range from a sense of minor discomfort to severe and debilitating.
A Physiotherapist can help treat neck pain. Physiotherapy can help treat stiffness and [...]
Family Fitness Exercises
As a parent, it is important for you to encourage your children to be physically active. A child should try to do at least 40–60 minutes of exercise each day. To achieve this goal, plan some family togetherness time. Here are some easy ways to reach that goal together.
Walk the dog. Treat your dog to [...]
Ice & Heat Applications
Ice is an effective and natural pain killer and anti-inflammatory.
Ice should be applied over the inflamed area in the acute or early stages of your problem. (See below for application)
Whenever you experience swelling, redness or sharp / stabbing pain it is generally considered best to apply ice. Repeat until symptoms ease – usually [...]

The Five Seasons of May
- By: Geoff Moore
- Photography by: Geoff Moore
Refreshed after a long, ice-covered rest, British Columbia's interior lakes wake as the light shifts from a cold blue of winter to warmer spring hues. Improving weather trends are fairly consistent, but it's possible to experience a sampling of four seasons in a single day. If you are a fisherman and a hockey fan, it's even possible to experience five seasons in a day, those being spring, summer, fall, winter, and the NHL playoffs. The downside of the fifth season is you may lose focus on priorities. For example, a night of hockey and merriment could result in a poorly executed angling plan, especially if you're scheduled to be on the water a few hours after your celebration ends. We all know that a lack of clarity leads to precarious situations, and that's exactly what happened to me.
The Wild Steelhead Coalition
- By: Greg Thomas
I think it takes a bit to get Jim Schmitz pissed off. For instance, I was recently interviewing Schmitz, vice president of the Seattle-based Wild Steelhead Coalition, when he realized that his house had just been robbed. He casually said, without hint of anger, "Hey, I should probably deal with this. Would it be OK if I give you a call later?"
But let me tell you this: If you bring up hatchery steelhead, Washington State's 1974 Boldt Decision and the mismanagement of that state's fisheries, you'll see Schmitz's hackles rise.
The Ice Cream Cone Chironomid
- By: Brian Chan
- Photography by: Brian Chan
Fly-fishing continually evolves, be it advancements in tackle, the challenges of new fisheries, or the evolution of fly patterns and fishing techniques. In fact, what may seem like a simple fishing or tying advancement may turn into a significant step in the refinement of a fishery. That's often the case with stillwater trout fishing, where creative anglers are attracted to the sport because it offers plenty of challenge and equal reward, in the form of skeptical trout that run much larger on average than their stream-raised counterparts.
One of the most productive lake-fishing methods is to fish with chironomids, also called midge pupae. In nutrient-rich waters these members of the Diptera insect family form a significant part of a trout or char's diet. During spring and summer daily chironomid emergences cloud the water with pupae wiggling to the surface. Chironomid pupae must taste good, because the biggest trout gorge on even the smallest pupae. Fish literally swallow hundreds of the insects as they slowly ascend to become adults. But matching chironomids and getting a fish to take isn't as easy as you'd think it would be. In fact, in lakes fish have the time to study them closely, and they'll likely refuse anything but a perfect match. That's why matching chironomids has become an art form, and Kelly Davison, who runs Searun Fly & Tackle in Coquitlam, British Columbia, made one of greatest advancements in chironomid construction of all time.

The 2012 Chevy Sonic
2012 Chevy Sonic arriving Fall 2011
Your browser does not support iframes.
The all new
2012 Chevy Sonic
is loaded with technology, safety features, and good looks. It replaces the outgoing
Chevy Aveo
as the sub-compact car in the Chevy lineup. It's a much more aggressive looking car, with fierce design elements and a stance that's always prepared to accelerate. The Sonic should be a hit with consumers when it lands on the lot.
Like its predecessor the Aveo, Chevy Sonic comes in two versions:
a 5 door hatchback
a four door sedan
. Unlike its predecessor, the interior has been completely redesigned and refined. It's now stylish, sleek, and befitting of modern standards and expectations, with a dash of motorcycle influence thrown in for good measure. Driving will be a joy for you and your passengers. There's more back seat room than before and
more room than the competition
, including the Ford Fiesta.
Like its bigger brother the
Chevy Cruze
, the Sonic will have
a whopping 10 airbags
. Small shouldn't mean you have to sacrifice safety. The Sonic also shares the same engine options as the Cruze. You can either pick a
1.8-liter four cylinder
connected to a 5-speed manual or 6-speed automatic, or a
1.4-liter turbocharged with 138 horsepower
in either automatic or manual with six forward ratios. The Sonic has more horsepower than its competition, including the Fiesta.
Chevrolet is issuing a challenge to its competitors with its new vehicles, and it looks to shatter the pre-existing notions people hold about sub-compact cars.
Corvette engineers
were responsible for the ride and handling of the vehicle, so expect something more fun to drive than your typical sub-compact car. Which is typically
fun to drive.
General Motors' plant in
Orion Township in Michigan
will be building the Sonic. That's right, the Sonic will be assembled here in America. The Chevy Sonic will be arriving at our dealership sometime in
fall 2011
The best way to find out future information regarding the Sonic, including when we'll be receiving the car in stock, is to
fan us
on Facebook or
follow us
on Twitter. Look for this page to be updated as more information regarding the Sonic becomes available.Thanks for visiting, we hope to see you soon!

Tutto E Possibile
So about me...I just moved to Miami a couple weeks ago from Charleston, Sc so that I could be closer to family and I am loving every minute. I am a genuinely optimistic and honest person. You can always find me with a smile on my face. My family, friends and faith are extremely important to me and I strive to balance all of them. I love to make the most out of life and never want to waste a minute. I am extremely adventurous and always up to trying new things. Skydiving has always been at the top of my bucket list. Staying active is also a key part of my life. I exercise frequently and enjoy running marathons and half marathons. Recently I have taken up SUP......kite boarding is next. I eat healthy(most of the time), but I have a weakness for fresh baked cookies! Cooking is a joy of mine and I am always on the hunt for tasty fun new recipes to whip up. I grew up on the water in a small town in Florida . Some of my favorite pastimes are walking on the beach and cruising down the river. Even though I grew up in the sunshine state I am also a big fan of playing in the snow. Ever since I can remember my family and I used to go on ski vacations out west. I know how to snowboard and ski but I'm better at skiing for sure! Traveling is a passion of mine and it's something I can't get enough of. I have backpacked around Europe a couple times and would go back in a heartbeat. Last December I went on a medical mission trip to Nicaragua to provide primary care to those in need. I am interested in meeting a man who is adventurous and has a love for the outdoors. A good personality and sense of humor is a must. I would like to meet a man who will challenge me to be a better person and inspire me try new things. Someone who is family oriented and kind hearted are two important qualities I look for. If you think fit this description please don't be shy, send me an email.

Medical University of South Carolina, Charleston, SC
I really enjoy almost any type of live music but when it comes to singing in the car, I love country.
In my free time I enjoy being outdoors with my friends and family. The beach is my favorite place to be and I especially feel at home on the boat. I went to the University of Florida and I LOVE watching the gator games.
My favorite books are A Long Way Gone and A House in The Sky. But recently I have read the Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks and The Great Gatsby (can't believe I missed out on this one in high school AP english) and loved them both.

Atheism and women
From Conservapedia
Recent studies concerning atheism and women
Surveys by country
In November of 2010, Discover Magazine published survey results published by the World Values Survey which showed significant differences between the percentage of men and women who are atheists for various countries with men outnumbering women in terms of adopting an atheist worldview. [2]
United States surveys
In 2015, BloombergView reported concerning the United States: "According to a much-discussed 2012 report from the Pew Research Center on Religion and Public Life, ...women are 52 percent of the U.S. population but only 36 percent of atheists and agnostics.[3]
A 2009 article in LiveScience.com entitled Women More Religious Than Men reported: "A new analysis of survey data finds women pray more often then men, are more likely to believe in God, and are more religious than men in a variety of other ways...The latest findings, released Friday, are no surprise, only confirming what other studies have found for decades. [4] In 2007, the Pew Research Center found that American women were more religious than American men.[4]
Atheist PZ Myers' and atheist Susan Jacoby's commentary concerning atheist meetings
In June of 2010, the atheist PZ Myers commented that atheist meetings tend to be significantly more attended by males.[5] In October of 2012, the atheist Susan Jacoby wrote in The Humanist concerning atheist meetings: "When I speak before non-college audiences — that is, audiences in which no one is required to be there to get credit for a college course — 75 percent of the people in the seats are men."[6]
For more information, please see:
2010 New York Times description of atheist meeting attendees
See also: Western atheism and race
In October of 2010, an atheists' meeting was organized in the United States concerning the future direction of the atheist movement and 370 people attended. The New York Times described the attendees as "The largely white and male crowd — imagine a Star Trek convention, but older...". [7]
Beliefnews report concerning atheists' group membership and demographic makeup of meetings
In 2011, Beliefnetnews reported concerning the race and gender of American atheist:
| From the smallest local meetings to the largest conferences, the vast majority of speakers and attendees are almost always white men. Leading figures of the atheist movement - Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, Christopher Hitchens and Daniel Dennett -- are all white men.
But making atheism more diverse is proving to be no easy task.
Surveys suggest most atheists are white men. A recent survey of 4,000 members of the Freedom from Religion Foundation found that 95 percent were white, and men comprised a majority.[8]
Prominent general atheist websites appear to receive significantly less traffic from women
The website Freethoughtblogs has significantly less women visiting their website than men according to the web traffic tracking company Quantcast.[9]
Survey data, website tracking data of prominent atheists' websites and other data indicate that in the Western World, atheism is significantly less appealing to women (See also: Gender and racial demographics of Sam Harris' audience).[10]
New Atheism websites appear to receive significantly less traffic from women
New Atheism websites appear to receive significantly less traffic from women than men (see: Gender and racial demographics of Sam Harris' audience).
The above data suggest that atheism in general and the New Atheism movement is significantly less appealing to women in the Western World.
Atheist leaders and misogyny
See also: Atheism and sexism and Atheism and love and Atheism and rape
James Randi is a leader within the atheist community. Brian Thompson, former James Randi Educational Foundation (JREF) Outreach Coordinator, wrote:
| But I no longer identify with this community of benevolent know-it-alls, because not all of them are the best folks in the world. In fact, a good percentage of the top ten worst humans I've ever met are prominent members of the skeptics' club. They're dishonest, mean-spirited, narcissistic, misogynistic. Pick a personality flaw, and I can probably point you to someone who epitomizes it. And that person has probably had a speaking slot at a major skeptical conference.
I grew particularly disgusted with the boys' club attitude I saw among skeptical leaders and luminaries. The kind of attitude that's dismissive of women, sexually predatory, and downright gross. When I first started going to skeptical conferences as a fresh-faced know-it-all, I started hearing things about people I once admired. Then I started seeing things myself. Then I got a job with the JREF, and the pattern continued.[11]
Women, history and atheism
See also: History of atheism
In the 1770s, the French philosopher Paul-Henri Thiry observed a dearth of female atheists.[12] The English poet Edward Young (June 5, 1681 – April 5, 1765) wrote to satirically signal earthly apocalypse: "Atheists have been rare, since nature's birth; Till now, she-atheists ne'er appear'd on earth."[12] In a letter written in the 1760s, the English essayist Bonnell Thornton wrote: "Good God! A Female Atheist! … One is not half so shocked at the idea of a Female Murderer; A Female Murderer, in the worse of senses, of her own children, of herself."[12] In 1813, the prominent doctor Thomas Cogan (founder of the Royal Humane Society) declared: "Men contemplate a female atheist with more disgust and horror than if she possessed the hardest features embossed with carbuncles."[12]
Atheism and sexism
See also: Atheism and sexism and Atheism and rape and Elevatorgate and Richard Dawkins and women and Atheist hypocrisy
Most atheists are politically on the left (see: Atheism and politics and Secular left). Part of leftist ideology is feminism. However, there is a significant amount of misogyny among atheists. See also: Atheist movement
Writing on the sexism within the atheist community, atheist Victoria Bekiempis wrote in a Guardian article entitled Why the New Atheism is a boys' club:
|Annie Laurie Gaylor, who founded the Freedom From Religion Foundation with her mother, Anne Nicol Gaylor, in 1978, sums it up succinctly: "One word — sexism." Gaylor's husband, Dan Barker, who helms the organization along with her, is usually the one invited to speaking engagements, despite her longer tenure as the organization's leader and her numerous books on atheism.[13]
Katie Engelhart in her July 21, 2013 Salon article Atheism Has a Women Problem wrote:
| Around the time that the Dawkins-Hitchens-Harris tripartite published its big wave of Atheist critique, historian Jennifer Michael Hecht published " Doubt" and journalist Susan Jacoby published " Freethinkers"—both critically acclaimed. And yet, these women, and many others, failed to emerge as public figures, household names. "Nobody talked about [Doubt] as a 'phenomenon,'" Hecht has noted. "They just talked about the book." What gives?
The lady Atheist has a troubled history....[14]
Melody Hensley and harassment from atheist men
On May 15, 2014, the Washington Post reported that Melody Hensley, executive director of the Washington branch of the Center For Inquiry, was "diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder after a vicious flood of online and social media attacks that included threats of rape, murder and photographs of dismembered women. Many of her harassers, she believes, are men in the secular community."[15]
For more information please see:
Irreligion and domestic abuse
See also: Irreligion and domestic violence and Atheism and love and Atheism and loneliness
The abstract for the 2007 article in the journal Violence Against Women entitled Race/Ethnicity, Religious Involvement, and Domestic Violence indicated:
|The authors explored the relationship between religious involvement and intimate partner violence by analyzing data from the first wave of the National Survey of Families and Households. They found that: (a) religious involvement is correlated with reduced levels of domestic violence; (b) levels of domestic violence vary by race/ethnicity; (c) the effects of religious involvement on domestic violence vary by race/ethnicity; and (d) religious involvement, specifically church attendance, protects against domestic violence, and this protective effect is stronger for African American men and women and for Hispanic men, groups that, for a variety of reasons, experience elevated risk for this type of violence.[16]
A higher rate of domestic violence exists among cohabiting couples as compared with married couples[17] Atheists have lower marriage rates than theists (see: Atheism and marriage and Atheist marriages).
A September 9, 2012 article at Atlantic Wire wrote about the noted atheist John Lennon:
|But people have mostly forgotten that Lennon was also physically abusive towards women. "I used to be cruel to my woman," he said, citing the lyrics to "Getting Better" in a Playboy interview near the end of his life. "Physically—any woman. I was a hitter. I couldn't express myself and I hit. I fought men and I hit women." In his biography The Lives of John Lennon, Albert Goldman also maintains that Lennon was guilty of spousal abuse.[18]

Secular Europe and domestic violence

In March of 2014, the Swedish news website The Local published an article entitled Sweden stands out in domestic violence study which declared:
| A new EU review of violence against women has revealed that one in three European women has been assaulted, and one in twenty has been raped, with the Scandinavian countries at the top of the league tables.
In the Scandinavian countries, in contrast, around half of the women reported physical or sexual violence, which researchers at the European Union Agency for Fundamental Rights said could have several explanations...
In Sweden, 81 percent of women said they had been harassed at some point after the age of 15 - compared to the EU average of 55 percent. After Sweden, which had the highest rate, Denmark, France, the Netherland and Finland all saw rates above 70 percent. The EU member state with the lowest rate - 24 percent - was Bulgaria.[20]
Sweden is one of the most atheistic countries in the world and the website adherents.com reported that in 2005 46 - 85% of Swedes were agnostics/atheists/non-believers in God.[19] Sweden also has the 3rd highest rate of belief in evolution as far as Western World nations.[21]

Irreligion, alcoholism and domestic abuse
See also: Atheist Americans, gender and alcoholism
According to the World Health Organization, "Evidence suggests that alcohol use increases the occurrence and severity of domestic violence".[22]
A 2010 Scientific American column article indicates concerning domestic violence that "Women suffer close to two thirds of the injuries... In addition, women and men differ in the severity of their actions; women are more likely to scratch or slap their partners, men more commonly punch or choke their partners."[23]
Atheists and atheistic societies often have significant problems with excess alcohol usage (For more information please see: Atheism and alcoholism).
According to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC):
| Men are more likely than women to drink excessively. Excessive drinking is associated with significant increases in short-term risks to health and safety, and the risk increases as the amount of drinking increases. Men are also more likely than women to take other risks (e.g., drive fast or without a safety belt), when combined with excessive drinking, further increasing their risk of injury or death.
Approximately 63% of adult men reported drinking alcohol in the last 30 days. Men (24%) were two times more likely to binge drink than women during the same time period.
Men average about 12.5 binge drinking episodes per person per year, while women average about 2.7 binge drinking episodes per year.
Most people who binge drink are not alcoholics or alcohol dependent.
It is estimated that about 17% of men and about 8% of women will meet criteria for alcohol dependence at some point in their lives.[26]
Atheism and the sexual exploitation of women and children
The infamous pornographers Hugh Hefner and Larry Flynt are both atheists.[28]
In 2003, Arena magazine magazine listed Flynt as #1 on the "50 Powerful People in Porn" list.[29] Flynt is paralyzed from the waist down due to injuries sustained from a 1978 assassination attempt by the serial killer Joseph Paul Franklin.[30]

Barna Group study
The Barna Group found that atheists and agnostics in America were more likely, than theists in America, to look upon the following behaviors as morally acceptable: pornography; obscene sexual behavior; illegal drug use; excessive drinking; sexual relationships outside of marriage; abortion; cohabitating with someone of opposite sex outside of marriage and obscene language.[31]

Atheist community double standards: Muslim men misogyny vs. atheist men misogyny
See also: Atheist hypocrisy
In recent times, atheists have put in a lot of effort and focus into decrying the deplorable treatment of many Muslim women by Muslim men, yet the same degree of attention about the high amount of physical abuse atheist women endure at the hands of atheist men via domestic abuse and the other forms of abuse is not given nearly the same amount of import by many in the atheist community. See: Irreligion and domestic violence and Secular Europe and domestic violence.
For example, Ayaan Hirsi Ali was chosen to be the keynote speaker of the American Atheists convention in 2014 and in 2005 the secular left leaning Time magazine named her one of the most 100 influential people in the world.[32] Yet, the women who point out misogyny in Western World atheism receive torrents of abuse (see: Atheism and sexism) and are not highly lauded by the atheist community to nearly the same degree.

Atheism and marriage
See also: Atheism and marriage and Atheism and love and Atheism and interfaith marriages and Atheist marriages and Atheism and loneliness
Studies indicate that atheists are a minority in the population. Studies also indicate that people tend to marry people with similar values or who resemble their parents or themselves.[33] In addition, the Bible teaches Christians not to marry a non-Christian (The Bible also teaches a believer to stay married to a non-believer if you are already married).[34] Also, interfaith marriages often have greater marital friction and interfaith marriages historically have had higher rates of divorce.[35] Therefore, it would not be surprising if atheist/theist marriages also have increased marital friction and higher rates of divorce since these two worldviews are so different.
Given that atheism appears to be significantly less appealing to women, atheists are a minority in the population and that people tend to marry people with similar values or who resemble their parents or themselves; this would suggest that male atheists may find it more difficult to find prospective female partners for marriage. And of course, militant atheism might make matters even more difficult.
Atheism and rates of marriage in the United States
Christian apologist Michael Caputo wrote:
|Recently the Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life has published its mammoth study on Religion in America based on 35,000 interviews... According to the Pew Forum a whopping 37% of atheists never marry as opposed to 19% of the American population, 17% of Protestants and 17% of Catholics.[36]
Vox Day declared that according to the 2001 American Religious Identification Survey (ARIS) "more than half of all atheists and agnostics don't get married."[36]
The atheist population has a higher suicide rate than theists (see: Atheism and suicide).
Atheism, marriage and suicide
See also: Atheism, marriage and suicide and Atheism and loneliness
The atheist population has a higher suicide rate than theists (see: Atheism and suicide). Also, as indicated above, atheists have lower marriage rates (see: Atheism and marriage).
According the website Marriage and Family Encyclopedia:
|Marital status has a strong association with rates of completed suicide. Suicide rates are higher in the divorced and widowed than in single people, who in turn have higher suicide rates than married people. This protective effect of marriage on suicide is stronger for men than for women, although it is found for both men and women (Gove 1972).[37]
Atheism and rape
See also: Atheism and rape and Mass rape of German women by the Soviet army
Atheism offers no condemnation of rape and it provides no moral basis for a society to attempt to prevent and deter rape. Western atheists often assert there are no absolutes in morality and argue for moral relativism (see: Atheism and morality).
Commenting on Western atheism and rape, the Christian apologist Ken Ammi wrote:
|When considering any and every atheist condemnation of any action whatsoever it is of primary importance to keep in mind that they are expressing personal opinions about the act(s) they are condemning. They are merely telling you their personal preferences in the form of morality borrowed from the Judeo-Christian worldview. They are piling unfounded assertion, upon unfounded assertion, upon unfounded assertion, and building a tel of arguments from outrage, arguments from personal incredulity, arguments for embarrassment, etc.[38]
Christian apologist Kyle Butt wrote: "In fact, in my debate with Dan Barker, Barker admitted that fact, and stated that under certain circumstances, rape would be a moral obligation (Butt and Barker, 2009)"[39] (see: Atheist Dan Barker Says Child Rape Could Be Moral).
TheAmazingAtheist is YouTube's most subscribed to YouTube channel produced by an atheist and as of February of 2012 it had over 280,000 subscribers. In 2012, he viciously told a rape victim "you deserved it" and told her that her rapist "deserved a medal". He also told her that she should try to relive the rape in her mind.

Mass rape during the occupation of Germany by the Soviet army
See also: Mass rape of German women by the Soviet army
The Soviet Union practiced state atheism and militant atheism. According to the University of Cambridge, historically, the "most notable spread of atheism was achieved through the success of the 1917 Russian Revolution, which brought the Marxist-Leninists to power."[41]
The journalist Peter Hitchens is the ex-atheist brother of atheist Christopher Hitchens and he covered the Soviet Union during its latter years before it collapsed. According to Peter Hitchens, an atheistic society degraded the morals of the Russian people during the Soviet period (see: Soviet Union and morality).[42]
As Allied troops entered and occupied Germany during the latter part of World War II, mass rapes occurred in connection with combat operations and during the occupation which followed. Historians in the Western World generally conclude that the majority of the rapes were committed by Soviet servicemen.
The majority of the rapes happened in the Soviet occupation zone. Estimates of the number of German women sexually assaulted by Soviet soldiers have ranged up to 2 million.[43][44][45][46][47] The historian William Hitchcock declared that in many cases women were the victims of repeated rapes, some women experienced as many as 60 to 70 rapes.[48]
After the atheist leader of the Soviet Union Joseph Stalin received a complaint from Yugoslav politician Milovan Djilas about rapes in Yugoslavia, Stalin reportedly said that he should "understand it if a soldier who has crossed thousands of kilometres through blood and fire and death has fun with a woman or takes some trifle."[49] Also, when told that Red Army soldiers sexually assaulted German refugees, Stalin reportedly declared: "We lecture our soldiers too much; let them have their initiative."[50]
Atheist Rebecca Watson and post Elevatorgate claims concerning harassment
See also: Elevatorgate and New Atheism
Post Elevatorgate controversy, at an atheist convention, Rebecca Watson claimed:
|Hundreds of atheists have informed me that either they wanted to rape me, someone should rape me so that I will loosen up or that no one would ever rape me because I am so ugly".[51]
In addition, Watson declared: "I get regular rape threats. I get regular rape and murder threats".[52]
According to Rebecca Watson atheist women are often punished for being outspoken - particularly when they speak about feminism.[53] In August of 2013, Watson said the harassment she received from male atheists skyrocketed after Elevatorgate. [53] Furthermore, she said she still receives harassment from male fans of Richard Dawkins.[53] The atheist feminist Dr. Sikivu Hutchinson concurs with Watson and says that sexual harassment has been institutionalized within the atheist movement and that atheist men have an investment in censoring, controlling and policing women and also have an investment in "male privilege".[53]
The inappropriate behavior which was has been directed towards Rebecca Watson by atheists is not surprising. In February of 2010, the news organization The Telegraph reported Richard Dawkins was "embroiled in a bitter online battle over plans to rid his popular internet forum for atheists of foul language, insults and 'frivolous gossip'."[54] In addition, Richard Dawkins has a reputation for being abrasive.

Dawkins stands by Elevatorgate remarks. Says Elevatorgate incident was rather trivial
On November 18, 2014, Richard Dawkins indicated that: he stands by his recent remarks about women/men relations, he feels muzzled by "thought police" and that Rebecca Watson's experience in the elevator was "rather trivial" compared to events some Muslim women experience.[56]
Specifically, the Washington Post reported on November 18, 2014:
| "I don't take back anything that I've said," Dawkins said from a shady spot in the leafy backyard of one of his Bay Area supporters. "I would not say it again, however, because I am now accustomed to being misunderstood and so I will . "
He trailed off momentarily, gazing at his hands resting on a patio table.
"I feel muzzled, and a lot of other people do as well," he continued. "There is a climate of bullying, a climate of intransigent thought police which is highly influential in the sense that it suppresses people like me."
Recent criticism of Dawkins has come from women, many of them within the atheist movement, which has long drawn more men to its ranks. His online remarks, some women say, contribute to a climate they see as unwelcoming to female atheists...
"I concentrate my attention on that menace and I confess I occasionally get a little impatient with American women who complain of being inappropriately touched by the water cooler or invited for coffee or something which I think is, by comparison, relatively trivial," he said.[56]
Atheism and the men's rights movement
The "men's rights activist" subgroup on Reddit ran a survey of their membership, which found that the vast majority (94%) of them identify as atheist/irreligious.[57] Activists in the men's rights movement have a history of acting surly, rude and aggressive.[58]

Elevatorgate is a term commonly used to describe a scandal involving Richard Dawkins' inappropriate comments made to fellow atheist Rebecca Watson. In 2011, Richard Dawkins was widely criticized within the atheist community plus criticized in various press outlets for his insensitive comments made to atheist Rebecca Watson about an incident which occurred in an elevator.[60] Specifically, Watson was propositioned after an atheist event in an elevator by a man who apparently was a fellow atheist during the early hours of the morning and she was upset about the incident. Watson has written about widespread misogny within the atheist community and she has received threats of rape.[61]
Rebecca Watson's post Elevatorgate commentary about atheist conferences
Rebecca Watson post Elevatorgate wrote at Slate about atheist conferences:
| [W]omen started telling me stories about sexism at skeptic events, experiences that made them uncomfortable enough to never return. At first, I wasn't able to fully understand their feelings as I had never had a problem existing in male-dominated spaces. But after a few years of blogging, podcasting, and speaking at skeptics' conferences, I began to get emails from strangers who detailed their sexual fantasies about me. I was occasionally grabbed and groped without consent at events.
I started checking out the social media profiles of the people sending me these messages, and learned that they were often adults who were active in the skeptic and atheist communities. They were reading the same blogs as I was and attending the same events. These were "my people," and they were the worst.[62]

New Atheism movement and contention between atheist men and women
See also: Feminist quotes about Richard Dawkins
Within the militant New Atheism movement, there appears to be a significant amount of contention between men and women with complaints from women that there is a significant amount of misogny within the atheist community and its leadership is too heavily populated with men.[63] This may partly explain why Western atheism is less appealing to Western women. In addition, the significant amount of contention between men and women may apply to Western atheism as a whole. As noted earlier, Wired magazine made the observation that atheists tend to be quarrelsome, socially challenged men.
Atheist PZ Myers comment about Richards Dawkins' attitude towards women
See also: Richard Dawkins and women
In 2014, the prominent atheist PZ Myers said of New Atheist Richard Dawkins' attitude towards women: "At a time when our movement needs to expand its reach, it's a tragedy that our most eminent spokesman has so enthusiastically expressed such a regressive attitude."[64]
Sam Harris and charges of misogny
Like his fellow new atheist Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris has raised the ire of feminists.[65][66][67]
In 2014, Harris said that atheist activism lacks an "estrogen vibe" and was "to some degree intrinsically male".[68]
On October 3, 2014, Salon magazine published an online article titled, Atheism's shocking woman problem: What's behind the misogyny of Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris?[69] On September 20 2014, the feminist blogger Libby Anne wrote an article entitled Is Sam Harris Sexist?[70] Atheist Sam Fincke wrote a piece entitled On Sam Harris's Reply to Feminist Critics.[71]
In his defense, Harris published an article on his website titled, "I'm Not the Sexist Pig You're Looking For"[72]
Atheist leaders and immoral relationships
See also: Atheism, polyamory and other immoral relationships
On June 14, 2012, an article entitled Atheist leaders and immoral relationships published by an advocate of the Question evolution! campaign declared:
| The website Submitted to a Candid World is written by an agnostic and the website was praised by the prominent atheist PZ Myers in the past.
On April 20, 2012 an article appeared in Submitted to a Candid World which declared:
'Several of my close friends — coincidentally, all extremely intelligent, math/science oriented, and leaders in the freethought/rationality/atheist communities — find themselves practicing and promoting an arrangement they term "polyamory." Essentially, this describes a post-jealousy, highly rationalized state where participants date each other, and several others simultaneously.
In the ideal polyamorous relationship, one man is seriously "dating" several women, each of whom is in turn dating several men.'[73]
The article Atheist leaders and immoral relationships further declares:
| Several leaders of the "freethought"/atheist community are practicing and promoting polyamory. This is not going to help the poor reputation that atheism already has among the public. The Mormons promoted bigamy for a while and later retracted their position due to the public outrage.
Of course, atheist leaders engaging in and promoting practices such as polyamory is one of the many reasons why atheism has such a bad reputation in the world.[73]

Godless China and gender discrimination
See also: Godless China and gender discrimination
The current atheist population mostly resides in East Asia (particularly China) and in secular Europe/Australia primarily among whites.[75] See: Western atheism and race
The New York Times reported:
| Chinese women are losing ground in the work force compared with men, their representation falling steadily with each rung up the professional ladder. Women make up 44.7 percent of the work force, but just 25.1 percent of people with positions of "responsibility," according to China's 2010 census.
At the very top, their share falls still further.
According to corporate records examined by The New York Times, fewer than 1 in 10 board members of China's top 300 companies are women. That measure, significantly smaller than the proportion of women on corporate boards in the United States...
"Chinese law doesn't define gender discrimination, so how do you even argue a case?" he asked. "It's very, very difficult to get one into court."
Companies need not bother with subtlety in job advertisements. A maker of security cameras seeks sales managers: No women need apply. A company that sells box cutters is looking for a human resources manager: male, age 25 to 35.[74]
