Faithless Forum was awesome
Hey y’all! Welcome back to KC’s Corner and today we are discussing what we thought about the Faithless Forum that we just organized and hosted in Dallas, TX. Overall it was a great and successful event that we put on with major impacts on the community.
Today I have Godless Engineer joining me to sort of drive the conversation. First, we want to discuss what were our motivations leading up to the conference. There were a lot of motivating factors that played into it. At first, I didn’t really want to go to it but as we started to plan it with our group of people (TellTale Atheist, GM Skeptic, Holy Koolaid, Shannon Q, and many others) it got to the point where I just had to be a part of it. I wanted to do something for the community to show people that you don’t have to have a giant conference or a giant budget to do what we did. We also wanted to empower people in the community to stand up and use their voice in whatever way they can.
My favorite part was… well the entire conference was my favorite but Allie Jackson has to be #1 on my list of awesome things about this conference. I also liked Godless Engineers mean comments activity but the panels were all so good this year. We are going to keep this momentum going too. We are turning Faithless Forum into a non-profit and will be hosting events in the Dallas area at the very least. The end goal is to have multiple small conferences going on all around the US and possibly the World. I am going to be the Director of Event Planning and the Secretary because woman things lol.
