This page is dedicated to publishing the thoughts and essays of atheists.

These are not intended to be scholarly, formal philosophical papers - just the views of the world from the minds of ordinary people who are free from religion. I do not necessarily agree with all the viewpoints expressed here (as many atheists do not necessarily agree with everything I've written in the main body of the Wasteland Of Wonders). Atheists are not a hive community, and we all have different loves and hates, political and philosophical positions - the only thing atheists have in common is atheism. The articles here may give a taste of that diversity.

Comments and questions regarding the contents of these articles should be directed to the individual authors.

If you have an article you think would make a suitable addition, please email it (plain text is preferable) to guestarticle@abarnett.demon.co.uk

Guidelines :

  • Articles should preferably be interesting, original, well-reasoned, thought-provoking personal views about some aspect of atheism/theism that atheists or interested theists might enjoy reading.
  • Try to pre-empt possible objections to your argument and address them in the article. As well as making the article more complete, it will also reduce the quantity of emails you get making just that objection.
  • No ranting, abusive, personal attacks on Pat Robertson or detailed explanations as to why every single living Christian is an idiot, please.

So, pull up a comfy chair, and read on.
