Heaving Dead Cats
I Didn’t Get Struck By Lightning
So I didn’t get struck by lightning when I went to church this morning. But I do feel like I’m catching a cold from the exposure to all those christian strangers. I guess I’ve been smote by the rhinovirus of GOD! The first thing I noticed was 2 cops directing traffic. Butch commented on taxpayer [...]Sunday Looms Menacingly
I don’t want to go to church on Sunday. The last time I was in church was for a wedding. Miraculously I wasn’t struck by lightning when I looked up at the huge 15 foot tortured Jesus bleeding on the cross over the doorway and said, “Jesus! WTF!” Then I proceeded to bite my cheek [...]12 Questions About Morals By Sam Harris
Sam Harris wrote an article answering 12 questions relating to his book, The Moral Landscape: How Science Can Determine Human Values, which is due to be released October 5th: 1. Are there right and wrong answers to moral questions? Morality must relate, at some level, to the well-being of conscious creatures. If there are more [...]I Believe In Miracles
Damn, now that song is going through my head. Who was that? Butch says it was Wild Cherry, but don’t hold me to it. Anyway, my friend Eric sent me a link to Michael Shermer’s site, to a page titled Miracle on Probability Street. He wrote it in 2004 but I thought I’d share it [...]Great Reason or Atheist or Science Quotes Needed
I need your help. I’m going to church soon with my Religion of the Month Club (a subgroup of Morgantown Atheists) and I have the idea of putting an envelope in the collection plate when it comes around. In the envelope I want a few really AWESOME quotes from brilliant people. Preferably not nasty, but [...]Neece's Home For Practical Pragmatism

- About Me
- I am an eclectic enigma, a paragon of practical pragmatism, a lover life's little luxuries, a searching and sensible citizen scientist. I am a skeptical atheist with a heart of gold.
I have a great husband, also an atheist, and two awesome dogs that drive me crazy.
I look forward to talking to like-minded people about anything and everything so say hi! :)
Heaving Dead Cats is a place for merging our thoughts and opinions into an agora, a common meeting place to Enlighten the Mind and Dispel Ignorance Through Skeptical Freethought Atheist Musings. HDC is also a place for recovering believers from the tyranny of religion, and so much more.
We're looking for good people to contribute articles, posts and information, to help make it an awesome place for atheists and freethinkers everywhere, as well as a resource. So feel free to contact us to get involved!
Morgantown Atheists is a new site I've started for the Morgantown Atheists group. We are a group of skeptical freethinking pragmatic atheists who love reason and science. :)

This guy is also involved with "C Street" too somehow.
I love this.
I'd gleefully pay for this to be run in the local paper.
I love the idea of flyers posted around. I'm going to bring that up to my group. Hey, don't think it can't eventually make a difference. Even if a handful of like minded nontheists get together to hang out once a month, you never know where that can…
I'm not the one in charge of the billboard campaign here in Morgantown, but I'll try to find out how hard it is. I think that the FFRF just really needs one person to find the right billboard company, get prices of different billboards, and then be…
Hi! I'm Neece and I'm near Morgantown. I think starting local groups that meet once a month or whenever is a great idea! I just joined the Morgantown Atheists. It's really small but hey, it's a start.
Our Morgantown group is just getting off the ground too. I like the idea of maybe doing some kind of bulletin board thing. That's a great idea! We're looking into getting a billboard through FFRF or the AHA put up. I think that would help some peopl…
You're Right, this group is small and lonely. We have a Morgantown Atheists group on yahoo and a website by that name, now. But there's not too much for atheists in WV, is there?

A Message For Creationists and Fundamentalists
Ok, I know, we're all good-natured atheists here, but this article would be for those of you who know creationists and fundamentalists. I know they are all hypocrites, but they are really bad about it. So I listed everything I could think of that they need to forsake. Please feel free to add to what I've got already. The whole article is at HDC.

5 Evil and Crazy christian Movements
christianity drives me nuts. I find it to be reprehensible in most aspects but here are a few issues that top my list at the moment. Please feel free to add to the list, and to include islam and any other religion. I found it overwhelming to even get as far as I did. It's rather depr… Continue Posted on January 28, 2009 at 8:46pm — 5 Comments
Wild Geese by Mary Oliver
Today my favorite poem just came to mind out of the blue. When I first heard it over a decade ago, it was very helpful to me in realizing I didn't have to sacrifice myself, like I had been raised as a christian. I am also requesting that you share your favorite words or image… Continue Posted on January 25, 2009 at 9:45pm —
A Short Survey For Atheists About Belief and Rationality
The other day I wrote about atheists and how we're not all evolved alike. We're all very individual with how we got to where we are regarding religion and our beliefs.
Today I created a short 6 question survey about reconciling belief and rationality. I'd love it if… Continue

The Virgin Mary is SEXY
How hot is the Virgin Mary? Yowza. This is the work of Ricardo Oyarzun, a fashion designer in Chile who wants to dress models in Virgin Mary inspired garb, but sexier. That's not the best part. The response of the roman catholic church is what made me laugh out loud. I quo… Continue

Brad Feaker said… - Neece,
Just read your post about atheist morality at de-conversion. You ARE a pot-stirrer! Some of the long timers don't like confrontation very much there - one of the reasons I don't read and comment there more often. But I liked your list - if you have time read the 'This I Believe' message on my page href="http://www.atheistnexus.org/profile/BradFeaker">here from Christopher Tucker...he is right up your alley! Good post!

Anyhow your dogs would probably get sick of all that flying.

It is true that many people take the path of religion to lead them out of destructive life styles.
It is also true that people can do the same thing without a reliance on faith (you just don't hear about it as much).
You sound like a very nice you…
I thought it was utterly brilliant that he said Abbot's offer of a billion dollars for Hobart hospital was immoral!
His refusal of such a ridiculous bribe iis one of the first moral acts I've ever seen from a politician. Clearly the man will have a…
I've seen posts about the 50 commandments of jeebus put out by xtians that cite chapter and verse and you really don't need a commentary to go along with them.
Boy it sure does kill the whole GOP/Tea Party platform.
I'm telling Miss Julie! . . (Sombody wants a spanking!!).
Seems like you could be in danger of getting more than just your tongue stuck, to a dancing pole at the north pole . . .
Just be carefull... I had a similar discussion with my sisnlaw and it almost caused a big rift in my otherwise tightly nit family.
From the article Tommy cited.
"However, religious commentators have criticized Hawking's theorizing, saying he can never hope to explain what is essentially unexplainable."
Well doesn't that kind of invalidate their own "god" theory then? ;p
Anybody else read it? I love the basic premise, and being an atheist means I can appreciate the mythology and not get bent out of shape about the multiple deities.
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 state barely…
I was in Panama City this past weekend, but I didn't have any free time. I was there for my brother-in-law's pinning. He was promoted to Major in the Air Force. The promotion ceremony was full of God and Jesus references, and the invocation was give…
I saw a video, or a blog post once that listed all the uncomfortable and illogical things that a person must do, according to Jesus' own words, in order to follow him. The list included hating your family, selling all your possessions, etc. I'm pret…
It's been almost a full day, and none of them have responded. I'm hoping that's the end of it, and they have bowed to my superior sophistry. ;-)
