I'm Ken and it's nice to find this place.  I was raised by Baptist parents and decided to do the "right thing" when I was around 18.  That being to read the entire bible.  Hmmm....maybe that didn't work out so well!  Haha.  Ok, about myself.  I am a firefighter.  I live in the country and wouldn't trade it for the nicest home in any city.  I enjoy food, motorcycling, hunting, and tons of other things!  I grew up in a small town.  Moved away to a big city and got enough of that in a hurry.  I'm new to this social networking thing so if I'm coming across as an oaf please let me know!  Anyway, I'm not a very interesting person but thought I'd go ahead and try to introduce myself.  Thanks.

Welcome. Great last name by the way. First off if you are exploring social networking and trying to get a better understanding of being an atheist you are already interesting. New to this myself and the best thing I have found is that it gives me a sense of not being so alone since we are outnumbered big time. I am in Florida and have spent my entire life deep in the bible belt. I cannot understand for the life of me how so many people just trod along in their life accepting all the nonsense we are conditioned to believe since they got their hands on us as children. It feels good not to fear and to reject a supernatural deity that sounds like a mean mo fo if you ask me. . Anyway welcome and I am jealous since I would love to live in the country again. I miss it. You are a lucky man.

Death of a family member

Posted by Larry Taylor on May 20, 2013 at 8:15pm 5 Comments

OK. I am venting. My mother died two weeks ago. She was a “god fearing christian.” Before her death she refused all medical treatment. She wanted to be left alone. She even refused to speak with my brother who is a methodist minister. He is a pip, let me tell you! I suspect she did not believe, but a woman born in her time could not and did not state her actual beliefs. This is the opening salvo to all christians; FUCK YOU! I had so many people come and tell…

Unbelievable!!!!!!!!

This probably should not have shocked me as much as it did (especially since I am in Texas). I actually thought my coworkers were playing a joke on me because they know I am an atheist. Sadly, this was no joke. This actually happened.

I work in a psychiatric hospital. The doctors who admit patients are general MDs. (Psychiatrists see patients after admission) Yesterday evening we received several calls from irate parents. A new doctor who was doing admissions yesterday actually…

anti-atheist rant from an Orthodox Mormon part 2

What do you think of this,

 

Nathan Young,

 

No Jason Torpy it is you that should be banned for promoting atheism, a belief that has no foundation in reality and zero proof behind it.  The letter was a mockery of your atheist beliefs.  I request to the board here that they remove Jason for his unverifiable beliefs in atheism for which he has no proof other than his arrogance.  The letter was a mockery of atheism.  Atheism is stupid and it should be mocked and it…

Anti-atheist post from an Orthdox Mormon

What do you think of this Facebook comment?

 

 

Nathan Young to Jason Torpy,

 

for once you and I can agree on something.  We should disrespect beliefs that are untenable such as the belief that there is no God.  Indeed for me to respect you Jason, I cannot respect your belief in non-belief in atheism.  Your atheism comes across as arrogrance, smugness, and self righteous.  Indeed after reading "An Open Letter to My Religious Friends" I penned one…
