Here is a poem I decided to come up with right here on the spot for the Nexus.


We look around and see the world, wondering what makes it twirl,
Looking with minds clear and bright we see the past in the twilight,
The stars that shine greatly and those that are dim reveal truth hidden within,
We look farther out and back, into the past of inky black,
Seeing chaos pass to order yet no design apparent or other,
Many claim truth absolute from a book, while we would just rather look,
The truth of our planet, and why we don't fly from it, all can be seen if we just look for it.
We seek the truth no matter it's form because we are curious since we were born.
We are moral by our own virtue and won't turn from it just to hurt you.
We are atheists that have no need for myth and legend nor gods creed.
Man created god in his own image while we look away from the visage.
You won't find war and hate in our books. We are atheist and thats just how it looks.

I am located in Newnan, Ga and have my own atheist group entitled "Coweta County Atheists".  I am currently being backed by Spaulding Co.…

Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film video

Posted by Debra Stevenson on May 21, 2013 at 2:37pm 0 Comments

There is a video of the Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film.  The man isn't demon possessed, there are likely no 'real' demons.  He's just delusional and doesn't want to accept personal responsiblity for his own behavior for his own dysfunctional life.

Do you support 'traditional' marriage, vot now ad

Posted by Debra Stevenson on May 21, 2013 at 2:28pm 2 Comments

There is an ad that reads ' Do you support 'traditional' marriage? Vote Now"!  .

 

 

No, I don't support 'traditional' marriage because there is no such thing. I support heterosexual and same-sex couples marry each other legally , yes.  'Traditional' marriage promoters largely do not believe that heterosexual women are co-equal to their husbands.  Their only purpose in 'traditional' marriage is to sexually satisfy their husbands if they can and raise children and do all…

i've got no problem with everyone saying "merry christmas" on christmas day.  however, they've turned it into an entire holiday season where it lasts a month or more.  in those situations it should be perfectly acceptable to say "happy holidays" or call it a…
