Katie Kish is a near graduate from York University in Environmental Studies and Music. This is her fourth University in four years and has previously majored in geography, physics, religion, philosophy, math, computer science, geology....etc. She has long been involved with freethought campus activism starting at the University of Victoria, where she dipped her feet in by starting the radio show Renegade Radio, a nationally syndicated program about secularism and science, that is still kicking strong today. Soon after she moved to Guelph where she became the president of the University of Guelph Skeptics club, co-founder of this darling site, Edger and vice president of the Freethought Association of Canada. Katie is now the assistant director and field organizer for the Centre For Inquiry - Ontario and regional director for western Ontario campus groups. Despite being the leader of so many groups and being so active she holds a very different opinion of religions than most others on this site. She has a deep respect and psychological draw to those who are religious. She is against religion that infringes on the lives of others and the state, but not that which gives people comfort and closure and meaning in life. More specifically her interests are in science education, paleontology, social issues caused by religion and criticizing everything that everyone does - religious or not.
