"Just a horrible story all around! Amazing how the church can put so much emphasis on the abortion, and not the actual rape/pedophilia incident."
Gina H replied to Becky Coats's discussion Morality as the basis for the existence of a God.
"I totally understand where you're coming from. Yes, we do still rely and learn things from each other. It just seems that some religious folk seem to think that they won't be able to be moral on their own without constant guidance from the…"

"And of course no one points out that god himself didn't show good moral standard in the old testament with all the murders, incest, slavery, killing of infants, etc."
Gina H replied to Becky Coats's discussion Morality as the basis for the existence of a God.
"Well, God hasn't actually been the voice on anything for anyone (at least I've never met anyone who has actually heard his voice). The voice of morality for these people is really their church. Like parents who have to help guide their…"

School Prayer - Isn't it all just for show?
At my son's National Junior Honor Society induction the other night, they ended the ceremony with the choir singing an Irish Prayer. Whatever, but it kind of irks me that the schools sneak in these little religious tid-bits of prayer from time to time.

Ruth Anthony-Gardner said… Greetings, Gina! I notice you haven't been active at Atheist Nexus lately. <sigh> Sometimes it can seem a bit fragmented, with different groups for every interest. Please consider a group for socializing, where we talk about whatever's on our minds, Hang With Friends. :D You might feel more at home.

I'd bring a copy of "The God Delusion" and conspicuously read that. I often do that, during my downtime at work.
