"Welcome. I too was raised Catholic, but never bought into it. I asked too many annoying questions during CCD classes. At age 13, right after my confirmation my dad gave me the option of going or not. I ran for the hills. For the life of me, I cannot…"

Some religious-themed works are to be expected in art and…"

Howard Stern hates Kirk Cameron
Don't know if anyone listens to Howard Stern or not but last week he totally went off on Kirk Cameron. He played a 10 min long clip of Kirk complaining about the christians being oppressed. " Kids can't even open the bible in school anymore." Howard was furious yelling about what a douchbag Kirk is and what about the constitution. blah, blah, blah. Super funny stuff. he spent over a half an hour at the begining of the show and then like 15 minutes towards the end of show yelling about it again.…See More

- About Me
- i have been an atheist for as long as i can remember. i went to catholic school until 4th grade, but i don't remember having religion in my house. i think my grandparents pushed my parents into putting me there. i don't remember ever buying into to the whole "jesus' thing. in 5th grade i went to public school but was still forced to go to catechism classes after school. but that didn't last long, i asked to many questions that the answer was "because the bible says so" and i was disrupting the rest of the class. i think i was pretty obnoxious about it, my parents were asked to control me or i had to stop coming. so that was my last my last encounter with that. and I'm much happier and more intelligent and better off for it. so up until recently i was what some people call a "soft atheist" not really vocal about it. But i find myself over the last 8 years becoming more and more angry at religion and our government(Bush) and have been looking for others who share my views. so here i am. and i look forward to hearing and voicing atheist opinions.
