About This Document: I debated creationist evangelist Ray Comfort at the Huntington Beach pier. I was a little worried because I had never debated, but soon realized that he was actually low-hanging fruit. His arguments, sorely lacking in logic, were easy to take apart (To see the YouTube video, search for "Ray Comfort debates [Bruce Gleason] the atheist")I started holding outreach programs about three times a year at the pier, holding signs saying "Good Without God" and "Live This Life Now -There Is No Afterlife." Now we have about 20 members with a variety of signs to attract those who also do not believe in the big sky daddy and to talk to others who are on the fence.Activism is very fulfilling and enjoyable. Our purpose has shifted from monthly meetings and field trips to more activism. There's a need to educate those who might be labeled "lazy atheists," because once they know how close our country is to a theocracy, they'd probably contribute more time and energy to our cause.
