Jim Mo. replied to Jake kerr's discussion Cranky Old Atheists Helping Bright-eyed Younger Atheists
"The reality is that we're witnessing the emergence of a very open-minded and bright generation. As for their laziness and lack of "fight", what do we expect? We've worked hard to make things easier for them.
I agree that we have…"
Jake kerr replied to Sophia S.'s discussion Do you remember the moment of your deconversion or the reasons for it? in the group Recovering Catholics
"I do not. I just remember being skeptical my whole life and being given very poor answers to what I considered basic questions. When I was in eighth grade, I was in enough doubt that I didn't want to be confirmed, but they used all the wrong…"
Tarquin St John Sh'gn'sty replied to Jake kerr's discussion Cranky Old Atheists Helping Bright-eyed Younger Atheists
"My misanthropy takes this form;
I love and cherish my family and the close friends I have (2 friends,each of over 35 years) I also protect children and animals if I can.
I have an intense dislike of human beings as a species.
I've arrived at…"

"Simple living will always be counter cultural.
Try it."
Nate replied to Jake kerr's discussion Cranky Old Atheists Helping Bright-eyed Younger Atheists
"Atheism being a manifestation of rebelliousness is yet another cliche- one promoted by religion itself. When my parents first commented on my professed atheism, they said "Nate always has been the rebellious one." In reality, my atheism…"

"Ah. The edgier than thou complex. Lovely.
I'm not saying we aren't shallow, but lets keep things in perspective.
Wouldn't someone like yourself be thrilled that what passes for the "counter-culture" now has rejected…"
Little Name Atheist replied to Jake kerr's discussion Cranky Old Atheists Helping Bright-eyed Younger Atheists
"Atheism itself has had an incredible marketing push, so its not quite as rebellious as it might seem.
This would make an interesting topic for another discussion, unless I'm the only one out-of-the-loop."

"Only think I'm lamenting is the loss of the ability to reject, not embrace, what you are told to consume."
Jo Jerome replied to Jake kerr's discussion Cranky Old Atheists Helping Bright-eyed Younger Atheists
"As nature would have it, the part of the human brain that levels out/grounds/deeper assessment of risk-taking, decision-making and the like does not finish developing until about age 25. (Oh the cool things one picks up at a random trip to the…"

"mthoreau: Also, might I suggest that old man Feltch is a little out of touch? While the underground rave scene of the 90's is largely dead,
The only thing ravers ever achieved were giving the tabloids a steady stream of…"
LeaT replied to Jake kerr's discussion Cranky Old Atheists Helping Bright-eyed Younger Atheists
"Oh Felch, believe me, there ARE people out there who are secretely still trying to rave up people!
I also hang out and write for this site: http://www.antichristian-phenomenon.com/
And random Youtube link brings me up this!
Yes, these stuff…"
Nate replied to Jake kerr's discussion Cranky Old Atheists Helping Bright-eyed Younger Atheists
"The "olders" lamenting how the "youngers" are aren't made of the same stuff, are wimps, have no creativity, etc. is so cliche. How we love to romanticize the past. We're all given to it if we don't watch…"
Фелч Гроган replied to Jake kerr's discussion Cranky Old Atheists Helping Bright-eyed Younger Atheists
"Mayo, I look at people that wish they were young again like they're raving lunatics. I would hate to be young in the here and now. I feel for you. It would really suck - the peecee bullshit alone, without even getting into the rest.
Me: The…"
Jake kerr replied to Jo Jerome's discussion Pagan-Atheist: Is there such a thing?
"I guess I would ask why purposefully confuse things. If you are saying that a tree has a life force, why not say it is "alive" as opposed to "has a spirit?""
Jake kerr replied to Jo Jerome's discussion Pagan-Atheist: Is there such a thing?
"Amy, my conception is that the issue isn't the definition of atheism but the definition of paganism. Paganism has many deist-related connotations and downright sub-definitions."
