Happy New Orbit Day for the Happy Atheist Forum! It's now 10 years since HAF first opened its doors. Those 10 years have been pivotal for rationalists and humanists.

The Internet has given atheists a community that previously could never have existed. Dotted around the world ridiculed, vilified or worse atheists lived in relative isolation.

Nowadays we can say collectively 'the emperor has no clothes!'

That makes me a very Happy Atheist  :frolic:

Nice, a decade is a long time for a forum.
Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.

It is. One of the key reasons I came here was because it had survived so long.

So we are looking at:
87,696 hours
or
5,261, 760 minutes
or
315,705,600 seconds
for a syndicate of delighted free thinkers.

Well done, well done indeed. Just need a better screening process. If miserable degenerates such as myself can freely join, there is obviously an issue.

10 years is a long time. It's great that the forum has survived that long, and quite an achievement!  :frolic:
