Religion didn't seem to be very important in my earliest years. We didn't pray or go to church except for maybe twice a year and then whenever someone died or got married. Strangely, I ended up in Catechism in preparation for First…

Underneath all the external trappings and time spent deeply entrenched in The Church, I think I've always been an atheist, or at the very least, agnostic.  My parents forced me to attend Sunday school and catechism classes when I was a…

About Me
Just an atheist stuck in the heart of the Bible Belt. I am married (19 years) and a father of 2 kids. I am 49 years old and like to play guitar, read about science (especially cosmology) and should have been an astrophysicist instead of a DBA.

How science saved my soul - or coming to your senses before it is too late.

Posted on April 18, 2011 at 9:21pm 0 Comments

I was once a very active and committed Christian.  I was the church treasurer, served on multiple committees, was a choir member and was active with the youth group.  But I always had a science bug, even in high school.  Yet I had never tried to reconcile my faith with science.  I don't know if I deliberately avoided it or just never thought of it, but that doesn't really matter now.  One evening while reading 'The Elegant Universe by Brian Greene, I began to think - I wonder how well my faith… Continue
