Convergence and Freethought Bloggers

You may have noticed a reduction in my output lately.  It’s all the fault of the Freethought Bloggers.  They scoop all the good material, and they get the hundreds of comments.  I’m left with just personal stuff, of varying quality.  Self indulgent pablum for the most part, like my last post on manliness.  This is all okay.  I’m happy to have the good people at Freethought Blogs take all the thunder, and the glory.  Unless I have something of value to contribute, I don’t see the point of making noise.

Which brings me to Convergence.  My partner and I are going.  And now I understand that PZ and the Skepchicks will also be there, including my partner’s new favourite, Natalie Reed.  These people are giants in the blogosphere, legends in their own time.  I’m so very happy I’ll be in the same city as them, let along the same convention venue.  Who knows, I might even get to meet them.  How cool is that?

And now that I’ve got your attention, once again let me direct you to the Lutheran Church of Australia website.  I’ve been having a chat in the comments under their latest posting, which is also an entertaining read.  These are very unusual Christians.  They actually seem to be open minded.  Who’da thunk it.
