The perpetually fabulous Greta Christina is coming to Seattle tomorrow! Well, technically she’s here now, but you don’t get to see her tonight unless you can stalk us down and figure out where we’re eating dinner (please don’t). But you can see her tomorrow at the event by the Seattle Atheists:
DATE: Saturday, August 6TIME: 1:30 – 4:30 pm, including my talk, Q&A, and panel discussion
LOCATION: 2100 Building, 2100 24th Ave. S., Seattle, WA
TOPIC: What Can the Atheist Movement Learn From the LGBT Movement?
SUMMARY: The atheist movement is already modeling itself on the LGBT movement in many ways — most obviously with its focus on coming out of the closet. What else can the atheist movement learn from the LGBT movement… both from its successes and its failures?
COST: Free (donations accepted)
The panel discussion will be on women in the secular movement. I’ll be on it as well, along with some other local godless ladies. And snacks are usually provided at Seattle Atheist meetings. What more can you ask for – snacks and awesome atheist women!
I hope I’ll see you guys there!

I talked to one of the food providers yesterday. There’ll be fruits, veggies, cheese, crackers, meat, and some sort of baked goods. If you’re coming from the east don’t forget that the I-90 bridge will be shut down at 12:45 for the Blue Angels, and 520 will likely be a mess. So get there early!

Thanks Jen for reminding all of us, and Mike for the heads up on Greta and “Ask an Atheist”, I’ll be sure to catch that one live.

If you haven’t been to Borrachini’s Bakery near there, don’t miss it! It’s also a fantastic Italian deli.

I kind of want to be as awesome as Gretta when I grow up. I would see her speak again, but Seattle is a cross country trip for me.
