An online conference on atheism, the Free Thought Blogs' Atheism with a Conscience (FtBCon), will be held this weekend starting tonight. All events are free and open to the public.

More than 30 sessions are scheduled, addressing such topics as “Sex and Skepticism,” “Atheism and Grief,” “Atheist Music,” “Improving the Image of Atheists,” and “Creationism.”

Among the dozens of speakers on the schedule are Jason Thibeault, Kate Donovan, Amy Roth, Glendon Mellow, and Shelley Segal.

According to the website, FtBCon is a free, online conference organized by the Freethought Blogs network and will focus on social justice, technology, and the future of the freethought movement.

“Without travel, registration, or hotel costs, FtBCon will be accessible to freethinkers around the world. Conference sessions will be held through Google+ hangouts, and attendees will have the opportunity to interact with each other in chat rooms and to submit questions to moderators,” the website states.
