Taking Responsibility for Our Feelings
"Nonviolent Communication" Excerpts and Notes:
Author: Marshall B Rosenberg
Stage 1: Emotional Slavery
We believe ourselves responsible for others’ feelings. We think we must constantly strive to keep everyone happy.
...
Stage 2: The Obnoxious Stage
We feel angry; we no longer want to be responsible for others’ feelings. We refuse to admit to c...aring what anyone else feels or needs.
Stage 3: Emotional Liberation
We take responsibility for our intentions and actions. We accept full responsibility for our own feelings but not the feelings of others, while being aware that we can never meet our own needs at the expense of others – our aim is to express and receive all our feelings and needs and come to a solution that considers everyone’s needs equally.

Signing Atheists
I was going to set up a group for Deaf Atheists, but figured I'd probably be alone in here if I did that so I figured I'd open it to anyone who knows sign language or even interested in learning it.
Loren Miller replied to Eric's discussion Vatican halted trial for man accused by deaf boys in the group Signing Atheists"I don't know if this is the trial you're referring to, and unfortunately, your link no longer refers to an active page, but back in February of 2013, HBO aired a brilliant if disturbing piece: Mea Maxima Culpa: Silence in the House of God,…"
Dennis Michael Pennington commented on blue pashmina's blog post Not believing in an afterlife does not mean i am a "sad' person."Living forever is not what it's cracked up to be. I'm not sad, but I do get tired more often. Imagine how sad and tired you would be after a few hundred years of singing praises and hosannas with God. Maybe it wouldn't even take that…"
