And so it begins...

Welcome!  You've come across the blog not just for any atheist, but rather for NE Atheist.  NE as in the abbreviation for Nebraska that is.  What, an atheist in Nebraska?  Yes, and I'm not the only one!  If you're an atheist in Nebraska check out the Omaha Coalition of Reason for a list of 7 non-theistic groups in the Omaha area with a combined membership of over 500 people.

Or check out the non-theistic groups in other cities like the Lincoln Atheists, the Wayne State College Freethinkers, or the Hastings Area Hellbound Atheists, Humanists, and Agnostics.  Know of any more such groups in the state?  Send them to me and I'll add a link to their website, Facebook, Google+ and/or meetup.com page.

It's time to connect the dots in Nebraska and start working together to advocate for a more secular government both locally and on the national level.  The priests, rabbis, imams, etc., and the politicians in their pockets are working to push their religious agendas upon all of us and to stop freedom of expression with blasphemy laws.  If we just stand by and do nothing now, there may be nothing we can do later.
