Marriage Equality and the Atheist
Julia Gillard is a strange thing. As mentioned in a previous post I take an interest in ‘new atheism’ and am heartened when I find public figures that willingly ‘come out’ and declare their beliefs (or in this case, lack thereof).

Where are the older posts?
In October 2011 the opinionation underwent a change where we ‘started over’ with a new masthead and new blog.
This was to allow the site to have a ‘fresh start’.
A better explanation of this can be found, on the old blog, here.
The older posts from 2008 – 2011 are found here.
Many posts from the old site will be redone, repolished and presented in a better way here on the new blog.
Most, thankfully, will be left in the archives.
We hope you enjoy the new site!
