Welcome to FTB!
I saw you speak at Reason Rally, and I was moved to tears. I look forward to reading your blog. You are such an insightful woman, and you have so much to contribute to the secular community and world.
Dear Ms Nasreen,
You were my favorite speaker at the Reason Rally. Your pronouncement, which touched my heart, was “I am at home wherever I am among atheists”. Having been born in Iran and left due to harassment by islamists, I felt no one ever spoke better for me. I remember vividly that back in the 1990s Iran’s state run media often ranted against you, condemning you for “heresy”. I think you and Maryam Namazie are going to be a tremendous contribution to FTB.
Welcome to Free thought blogs. I am really looking forward to reading your posts. I hope you will be able to come to Canada and give a talk here. I would love to attend.
Thrilled to see you blogging here, you quickly became one of my favorite speakers for your ability to convey both emotion and information with equally passionate intensity. Very much looking forward to reading the blog.
I heard you speak at the reason rally, you were awesome !
I am so ashamed that after living in India all my life, I had to hear you out in Washington DC !
Hope I can meet you someday 🙂
Hello, Taslim! You are a hero for women’s rights and human rights. I salute your courage and hope to see you some day. In the meantime, I look forward to reading your article here and learning from them.
Hello, Taslima! Keep thinking, and talking, and writing, and hoping. And know that there are many millions of us silently working to support your and our ideals.
I was quite taken by the first post I read, and I look forward to reading your blog in the future. I hope you have a long and enjoyable association with the Free Thought Blogs.
Welcome, Taslima! I’m sure Freethought blogs will be much richer for having you here. I found your first few posts challenging and disturbing reading. Just what the world needs!
Hello! I don’t know if you recognize my name, but I was the guy who introduced you at the American Atheist convention. I’m looking forward to reading you on FTB.
