With the neighbours whingeing dogs driving me completely insane I have deigned fit to take a little time out of hectically writing my final OU essay, to bring you this incredibly late edition of last weeks twitter round up (courtesy of Jamie Wallis). Indeed the lack of posts this week just goes to show how much we need more volunteers to man our various forts when my life gets even remotely busy, so if you're a blogger in need of an outlet get in touch and help us out!

Round Up by Jamie Wallis (ed. C.J. Wilton).
This week features, amongst other things, a link to the BHA's e-petition against collective worship in schools and the news that QEDCon is ON! I've got my ticket, the gala dinner is already booked out, but despair not the delightful Hayley Stevens of Righteous Indignation has kindly organised an alternative/rebel gala lunch for those who couldn't make the official event. - The first in a thriving QED fringe culture, one hopes!
If you haven't got tickets to #QEDCon go to www.qedcon.org... or else! :P

RT @MichaelShermer: Brilliant video rebuttal to pastor Michael Stahl's "Christian National Registry of Atheists" comparing us to criminals:
