Southern Illinois, about 20 miles north of Cairo, and 30 miles south of Carbondale. So far out in the country that, to paraphrase the local vernacular, "the hoot owls get romantic with at the chickens." Though I have to admit, I prefer the wide open…
I live in Chicago - Lincoln Park and have my office in the Loop. I am always looking for more people that are atheist/freethought/humanist that are interested in talking where they came from, religiously, and where they are at now. It is the communi…
I reside in Champaign and currently am working in retail as a tech solutions and sales associate. However, I have an M.A. in History and am actively looking for a teaching position at the JuCo level.
I live on the Chicago Southside. I moved to Chicago almost ten years ago to attend Loyola University. That's right, a Jesuit school. I worked on the Chicago Southside as a public school teacher for slightly over a decade before returning to Loyola f…

I’m a 23 year old software developer living in the St. Louis Metro area. I’ve recently left military service after four years and am enjoying the freedoms that come with being a civilian. I have been faithless my entire life but after my eye widening stint in the Air Force I’ve become a liberal Secular Humanist. I’ve decided to join the freethought blogosphere now because I think this is an important time for the atheist community and I want to be a meaningful part of our movement.

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.
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…
