"My situation precisely! I am considering a move to Forest City NC and wonder if there are any humanists, agnostics, atheists, free-thinkers or other evil-doers in the area. Would like to find a group, or create a group if necessary...."

Hi, Everyone, Nice to have found this site! Our family is considering moving from South Florida (we're originally from NY) to NC in a couple of years, contingent on jobs. I am utterly unfamiliar…Continue

"Knowledge is never useless as far as I'm concerned. My kids get to hear some of my random knowledge; teens are so highly preoccupied w/ themselves & their tiny worlds so I try to keep it relevant & brief. My hope is that it 'gets…"

"Lived only here and the Chicago area. We traveled around a lot of the midwest when I was younger, though. That and I just read a lot, so I have a lot of mostly-useless knowledge about completely random subjects.
I just remember the generalities.…"

"Wyoming is better than the southeast, from what I've seen. It's still a solid red state, though. My big point was that there are no cities. The closest it has are Cheyenne and Casper, each of which are around 50,000 people.
The entire…"

"Yes! Mississippi was the one next to Alabama that I couldn't think of. I knew I was missing another big, southern fundy state somewhere!"
Joseph P replied to David Abbondanza's discussion Relocating to NC... Where are the atheists? in the group North Carolina Atheists
"Well, it's mostly one big fundie wasteland. Just like every state though, you get the focused, more educated, urban areas which have vastly higher populations of liberals and free-thinkers.
Of course there are states like Wyoming and…"

"You're so right, I forgot totally about those areas. I was doing the same thing I hate, lumping the state into one big fundy wasteland, which is not the reality. Lack of thought on my part!I'm mature enough to admit when I'm dead…"

"Actually, the urban areas of Texas are pretty liberal. Austin and Dallas have Atheists all over the place. There's just so much rural Texas."

"I'm long winded tonight! Apologies...didn't mean to hijack the thread w/ my Cary memories, but it was/is a great place to live, the more non-believers that move in the better! Just stay away from the rural areas, stick to the cities &…"

"Why would you even go outside, to get in the pool? STAY THE HECK INSIDE! I may go out around 10:00 or 11:00, tonight, since I need some stuff from the store.
So, what's the Wake County school board doing? I hadn't heard anything about it.…"

"I'm south of Raleigh - in Fuquay-Varina. It's much more conservative and religious here."

"Yeah, north Raleigh, here, and Chapel Hill is really, really liberal, particularly for a North Carolina town. UNC Chapel Hill has been a focus of liberal activities since the 60's."

Dr. Terence Meaden said… - Hello David, and welcome to this friendly meeting place where we recognise--as you do, being a freethinking atheist--that gods are phoney and religion is used to control people;
and how tragic and inexcusable it is that women and minorities have been oppressed these last two thousand years and more.
