This site is dedicated to the advancement of Atheistic Humanism

And a New Enlightenment in which mankind is free from ignorance, superstition and fear!

WEB SITES & PAGES - redirecting; please wait!

There are many web sites entirely devoted to atheism, agnosticism, free thought, brights, religions, world civilizations, regions of the world and the like. Many of those sites have links to research documents. There are, also, many web sites that are not related directly to the subjects discussed on the Age of Reality, but that have relevant pages. A large number of these sites and pages that have very great information on them and, of course, some are really horrible.

Some of the best web pages can be found on web sites of colleges and universities. Behind all the pages about their great student learning environments, their friendly and beautiful campuses, enrollment procedures and their sports accomplishments can be found learned information prepared by professors or by students, guided by professors. Generally, however, you really need to really dig for these pages.

Below is what I have to offer so far. If you wish to recommend a web site or page, please send it to me via email.

I have divided the sites as follows:

• Free Thought Organizations & Web Sites
• Research Related Web Sites & Pages
• Religious Organizations and Web Sites

American Humanist Association
The American Humanist Association is to my knowledge the oldest national humanist organization in the United States, having been founded in 1941. The site contains information about the organization as well as its publications. Many articles useful to research are linked from this site. An affiliated group, the American Humanist Society certifies persons to be celebrants who are able to perform weddings, commitment ceremonies, funerals and other ceremonies related to life events. web site

Good Life Humanists
Good Life Humanists is a group active in the southern part of Kansas City, Missouri. They meet monthly at a restaurant in Grandview, Missouri. They do not have a web site, but you can get more information by emailing the sponsor. email

Heartland Humanists
The Heartland Humanists is a group active in the Kansas City, Missouri, area. Visit their web site for their calendar. They, also, have a bulletin board on their site, if you wish to post a message. web site

Internet Infidels
The Internet Infidels is an umbrella web site which loads to a page entitled the Secular Web. The site contains many links to current news stories, a library of articles about numerous topics, links to sites all over the world and many, many more resources – a must site to visit and research. web site

Research Related Web Sites & Pages

Hooker
World Civilizations by Richard Hooker, Washington State University – If you are interested in world civilizations, including the world's religions, this is an excellent place to get an overview. The postings are related to Hooker's online classes at Washington State University. Hooker's pages; univerisity web site

Jesus Puzzle
The Jesus Puzzle – This web site is the work of Earl Doherty wherein he examines the Bible and other sources in trying to determine if a historical Jesus ever existed. It is a great source for anyone wanting to examine the New Testament and Jesus from a skeptical standpoint. Doherty is the author of the book The Jesus Puzzle and was interviewed for one of the commentaries on the DVD of the movie The God Who Wasn't There. web site

MSA-USC
Muslim Students Association at the University of Southern California – In my opinion, this is an excellent site. It has an online library of many fundamental documents related to Islam, including three translations of the Qur'an and learned interpretations of the Qur'an, Sunnah, and Hadeeth. MSA pages

PLOS
Public Library of Science – This is an online open source scientific library. You can read, copy, distribute and use its contents without limits and at no cost. Its growing fields of endeavor include biology, genetics, medicine and others - an excellent resource. web site

Sacred Text Archive
The Internet Sacred Text Archive –This is an excellent site for obtaining texts that are basic to a very large number of the world's religions. Where no such texts actually exist, they have included articles covering the basic beliefs of the people involved. Most of the texts are available for download, but they often give you a way to purchase a printed book, if you want the document in that format. web site

Tobin
The Rejection of Pascal's Wager – This appears to be a well researched skeptical review of the Bible by Paul Tobin. I have found nothing on the site about Tobin's qualifications, but all offerings are footnoted, so you can determine the accuracy of his views and allegations yourself. If you want to know the origin of the title of his site just click here: origin; web site

Religious Organizations and Web Sites

I have some sort of a link for almost all religions. I will add them when I can.

Answers in Genesis Ministries
Answers in Genesis Ministries – Site is devoted to defending Christianity and the veracity of the Bible against attacks based on science especially in the area of evolution; particularly interested in defending Genesis. web site

Institute for Creation Research
Institute for Creation Research – ICR views its purpose to provide scientific evidence for the stories in Genesis and to show "the scientific bankruptcy of evolution, while exalting Christ and the Bible". web site

Vatican – The Holy See
The Vatican - The Holy See – This is the official web site of the Vatican in Rome. It is an excellent resource for information about the Roman Catholic Church. Select the English version of the site and you will get more English records. Even if you select English, however, you will still get Italian and other languages. web site
