As the group name implies, a place for atheists who love Middle Earth and things Tolkien to congregate, make friends and have discussions. I will have more to add here later.

In response to your query, Steph, I have the Platinum Edition of Lord of the Rings. In addition to the three hours of extra footage, there are also several hours of documentaries and outtakes made during and after filming, including commentaries by the actors and some of the production personnel. I have gone on a number of Lord of the Rings marathons, watching the entire collection over the course of a week.

Keith, as a religious conservative, Sauron would have to plug Erú Ilúvatar, not Yahweh or Jesus Christ. After all, The Silmarillion is the true bible. Everything else is heresy.

Cool! A place where I can be a massive LOTR nerd with people that might not just tolerate it, but even appreciate it or share my defect.

Lord of the Rings (the books) made me fall in love with the English language, I've read it many times in Dutch, but the first time I read it in English was the most memorable.

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…

My first funeral as an atheist

Posted by Two Cult Survivor on May 21, 2013 at 11:30am 0 Comments

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).

THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…
