"Chrissie Farthing,
I agree yes these are stories of religious bigots waking up and realizing that the legendary and mythological stories and some immoral rules created by ancient sheep-herding nomads had missed the mark and they…"

Love Connection on Atheist Nexus

I haven't blogged here in a while and this one won't be like my previous posts, but I've thought about writing this for a while now.
Today is exactly one year since I met my future husband in the chat room on this very site! This has been the best year of my life. I have never met anyone who inspires me to be more creative and makes me happier. He's also a damn good rational thinker!
There have been quite a few hurdles to get past, the biggest…
Continue My Missing Cat
Posted on November 22, 2009 at 11:00am 11 Comments 0 Likes
This is not going to be like my usual entries. I like to update this blog regularly- at least weekly- and I usually do it on Sundays. Today, unfortunately, I don't think I will be able to. My cat, Mango, is missing. I am very worried and a bit too preoccupied to focus on anything else. As we atheists say, please keep Mango and me in your thoughts. Thank you.…
Musings On "Meant To Be" And Me
Posted on November 15, 2009 at 11:30am 4 Comments 0 Likes
I take issue with the bandying about of the phrase, “meant to be.” When most people hear it, they let it sink into their brain as if it must be an absolute truth. It clearly has ties to religious thinking, and yet, like the concept of “soul mates”, it seems to have gained a new place in peoples' minds. I know people who believe in god but don't believe in “meant to be.” I know people who believe in “meant to be” but not god. I know people who believe in both, and of course, people like myself… Continue
Stupid Religious Bumper Stickers
Posted on November 7, 2009 at 12:48pm 4 Comments 0 Likes
I saw two stupid things yesterday while driving. One was a leaf collection truck with a loose tarp as its top. The leaves flew behind it as the truck bumbled ignorantly along, creating whirlwinds of fall foliage in its wake. That was pretty stupid. I also saw a dumb, religious bumper sticker. It read, “My boss is a Jewish carpenter.”
I hate bumper stickers. I don't know why people put them on… Continue

It has lots of chopped parsley and garlic!!"

A group for young atheists, any ages from 0-20 welcome! People love to underestimate young people, especially minors who can't vote, but we are a powerful group...we are not alone.
The Flying Atheist commented on Claire Donnelly's group LGBTQI atheists, nontheists, and friends"I'm with you Chrissie, Dallas, and Daniel. If an anti-gay supporter wants to be a selfless martyr and end their life over two people loving each other, then let them kindly proceed, as long as they don't take any innocent victims…"
"A real scary video, Joan, but my nerves are made of straw. Glad the surgery went well! Yes, parsley fights inflammations, very good for you!
What a good picture of Ian, you look well!
And this is to wave goodbye as I'm off to the Vesuvius…"

Greetings, Christy! I see you haven't been active at Atheist Nexus since Nov. We have a new group where you might feel more at home. Please consider joining Hang With Friends , where we can share our stories and laugh, and discuss anything on our minds.
"If you think that marriage is purely a religious affair, then it should be removed from State recognition completely.
If the State recognizes it as a "legal" arrangement, then it should in no way discriminate against participating citizens.
I say, remove the term "marriage" from all legal documents, or stop discriminating based on the prejudices of your forefathers. Otherwise, keep your religion to yourself, and stop trying to push it into a government of the people, by the people and for the people.
'Cause it's not just "your" people -- it's ALL people." --author unknown
There ya go.
It was fun meeting at the Atheist meetup tonight!
