New UK Atheist resource

Spotted this yesterday http://www.atheismfront.com/ I haven't had a chance to look too deeply yet but its good to see the momentum for people thinking about these things seriously is translating into tangible resources in terms of debates, films, TV, WEB etc.

On a related theme I read a statistic that 500,000 people have watched the Intelligence squared video of the Catholic debate last November featuring Stephen Fry, wow, that's a lot of people for a fairly marginal topic, just goes to show what a big celebrity can do for something like this, fortunately the majority of decent comedians like Fry are on our side already :)

Nah, it's just like the "Alpha poll". It's one atheist watched it 500,000 times.

Archdruid, nah, they'd need 60 years to do that... doh! :)

They don't have to watch it all to count do they? I bet they just watch the interesting bits.

Archdruid, you could be right about that, I can only take Ann Widdecombe in small doses ;)
