He was an outstanding speaker. Hearing what Kagin had to say was very thought provoking!

I had a great time. Mr. Kagin is highly skilled and knowledgeable on all aspects of the legal/political landscape surrounding "Church-State" issues. We are lucky to have him leading AA in these very challenging times.
I also enjoyed meeting many group members for the first time. My only regret is that I was unable to speak with everyone I wished to as I became engaged in interesting conversation with the ones I did meet. I guess you can't just Meetup once. I'll try and make it to another gathering next time I'm in town.June 27, 2011

This was my first meeting, so my impressions are as a new kid on the block. I appreciated our speakers breadth of knowledge and his humor. My experience was positive, and I look forward to the next meeting.

Hey Blair! Aren't you out of Birmingham? JJ here, from Nashville. I'll be there with my nephew. I'd like to catch Ed swinging through Nashville. Secular Life is over 750 members and Nashville Atheists has passed 550. I suspect Mr. Kagin could attract a large turnout....with a little promotion from...well, me.
