Free thought had a winter party over at our house. It was the most fun I have had in a long time. I would highly recommend other atheist groups having at least one party a year. The conversation becomes rather…
You have my sympathy. A member of our local organization lives just a few miles north of you in Stinnett. You might check out our site Freethoughtoasis.org or visit our meetup group.
I live about 3 hours south of Borger in a small Texas town of 10,000 in which there's about one church for every 10 citizens (OK, so I exaggerate only a little...). My basic philosophy on religion is "to each his/her own." As long as…
I am an atheist in West Virginia where there is a bar for every church. *rolleyes* My husband and I neither drink nor smoke nor rent pornography from the local video stores. Since my husband has been trying to start business and it would be…

I live in central Texas, so most of the people aren't as bad as they are in other parts, especially because of the influence Austin has even on San Antonio.
I don't have any horror stories of being threatened or anything. Just more that…
