I am quite fortunate in that my old lady and I are both complete nontheists. We have plenty of problems dealing w this and that, but in this area we see almost everything eye to eye. We are able to both respond to most things relating to theists in…

Man, it's wack!!! I experience this all the time in the dating arena.
I get a raise as a result of hard work and he would want to tell me it was "jesus". Thank Jesus.
If a problem arises, most…

My wife is an active and faithful Mormon, whereas I've been atheistic for my entire adult life. She joined the "Latter Day Saints" a few years after we were married, and has become a strong supporter.
When asked, I often respond that…

My parent's relationship went to hell when my mother left the faith, but they're divorced now so it's cool.

This question is one of the reasons I came here ~ to Atheist Nexus ~ to find others in the "same boat" to see how/if it can work. I've been in a relationship for almost a year and we're talking about marriage. I told him upfront…

Oh, it just occurred to me, have you been in contact with Norm Allen, executive director of African Americans for Humanism? Here's a podcast of Allen talking with DJ Grothe on Point of Inquiry.
Here's his contact details:

Shondrah, there are many African American atheists here. The Black Freethought group on Atheist Nexus has nearly 100 members. I suggest you join the group and start a discussion there about your research. I'm sure they'd love to know about…

I once dated a Christian (Seventh Day Adventist) and she was wonderful. We didn't have any problems regarding religion even though we talked about it alot. I am still really good friends with her (We broke up when I left for college because…

Love the list. It's even worse here on the shiny buckle of the bible belt...... it goes on 24-7-365 here. BTW....I'm BlueJeanGirl's mom. We used to gently argue religion during her Pente days, but I always knew she would come to her…

Twas the night before Easter....

It just occurred to me (while going all Tolstoy on a comment page) that my thoughts and words may be better suited here in Blogville, USA.
Anyway, Lent in south Louisiana (and other hardcore Christian areas) is hell for non-theists. The following is a quick list of the reasons why. Why a list? Because I'm a guy and guy's like lists and tournaments...that's why:
1) Easter dress shopping...c'mon...really?
2) Even more people walking around asking you about church,… Continue

Laura Lynn said… - i know what you mean about being an atheist in this area.. i am not too far from you in louisiana... close to lake charles actually.. and i don't know anyone who is not a christian.. finding a freethinker/atheist/agnostic in this area is truely like finding a needle in a haystack

John Smith said… - Hey there! I'm glad you liked my videos. Any you liked in particular? What's it like down south? I've never been so far south except for only two days in Virginia (if that's considered to be the south). Are people overwhelmingly conservative and religious over there? I have seen some videos of fanatical Christians (some of which I posted on here).
