Happy New Year to all. As stated previously, Path of Reason will be phased out and any further work Derek and I do in the "freethought" realm will be through Truth-Saves.com. It was a great experience running this site. At this time, Derek and I are moving on to other projects. Personally, I will be focusing on a screenplay centered on religion and atheism. Feel free to continue to email us ( derek@pathofreason.com and adam@pathofreason.com ).

Thanks again.

Happy New Year to all! We hope to help make this a great year for reason and free thought. Unfortunately, we received no responses from Christians regarding our questions about God's Sacrifice. Although we can't say we are surprised.

The American Humanist Association managed to raise over 1 million dollars last year so that will be matched through the Appignani Million Dollar Challenge. Path of Reason was able to help donate $100 to that effort through our fundraising. Thanks again for making our artwork auction a success.

I am still trying to raise funds for my move to TX. I understand that this is probably the worst time to ask for donations but every little bit helps. Once I make the move in March of this year (ready or not) Derek and I will be able to work more effectively together through podcasts, videos, articles, and local activism.

Thanks to everyone for your support last year and we look forward to pulling together with your help to continue promoting reason this year!
