A St. Louis pastor came in to Applebee's with a large group after church last Sunday. She had the gall to write "I give God 10%. Why do you get 18?" on her portion of the check and cross out the…Continue

It's been a long process. Nine years, in fact, which, is huge for someone who is only 22! But I'm ready to come out as an atheist, and am on the cusp of doing so. I set myself an absolute deadline…Continue

"Funny, I don't remember evolution being broached at all. It's almost as if they just ignored that major part of science hoping we wouldn't ask about it... Once I became an atheist, I started looking back and trying to see what we…"

Anyone remember our 8th grade science text? :)
Just stopping by for a little fond reminiscence of my 8th grade science textbook. Does anyone else on here remember using this one? It's called "Explore God's Creation".It's funny, because the text was old when I used it. But that was eleven years ago, and they are still using the same book! It's the same edition…See More

Hi Humble Pie, I'm so tech NON-savvy I didn't realize I had to accept the friend invitation before going further so it's been sitting in my inbox! No personal slight intended. Many things I need to learn about communicating (safely) in cyber space. Please be patient with me.
