(The title was particularly eye-catching.) Obviously, the results won't be representative of very much. (People who either "voted on behalf of their friends" or didn't comprehend the tally system made sure of that.) Our objective is not unlike what is written on the (most striking, and in a good way) "refurbished" AAAC banner hanging from CAB: "Speak out". We want people to stand up for what they believe or don't believe. And for those who don't know what they believe, we want them to think seriously about it instead of just going through the motions. We believe it's important to understand what and why people believe. So does the AAAC, I imagine. (Hopefully that assumption wasn't too much of a stretch.) People are thinking about it. People are talking about it. People are reading up on it. And judging by your article in the Gateway, I am satisfied in knowing that our event accomplished its objective with flying colours.
