Atheist Nexus

The World’s Largest Coalition of Nontheists and Nontheist Communities!

When I joined the nexus I felt confined.  I had no one really to talk to about my views and it was a relief to find a group of people I could have "those" discussions with.  After joining I found plenty of other Atheism sites I was not previously aware of (example r/atheism).  Since then I go to more links where Atheists and fundies argue.  I read more fundie nonsense than I use to.  I am exposed to religious nonsense Daily.  I must have been living in denial before nexus because now I am getting (for lack of a better word) Angry!  The abuse of children for religion, the saturation of religion into our government, the discrimination and hate of anything against "their" religion.  I don't know if I should turn my computer off and stop looking at this stuff or do I stay angry and argue with fundies online.  There does not seem to be a middle road for me.  If I see fundie nonsense on FB or comments under an online article I have read I am unable to stop thinking about it. I knew the world was full of fundies and "stupid" people but I guess I shielded myself from it before.  Now it feels like I have jumped in the deep end.   

Did joining coalitions of Nontheists online help you or are you experiencing an increase in unbelief/anger?  If so, how do you deal with it?

Thanks!

I'm angry that they discontinued 7-Up Gold. (:

 

Honestly I'm not angry about this stuff anymore. That does not mean I have no passion to see the wall kept between separation of church and state or that I think there is no need for robust criticism of religion.
