I can't say I had any particular moment of deconversion, having lost my faith gradually in many small stages. The first great blow to my beliefs came from reading the bible. Long before Christopher Hitchens wrote "The God Delusion", I observed that…
I agree. I never told my parents about that until recently. They were livid. I can now imagine they would have caused a serious row about. Now that I'm a parent I feel the same way.
I ask myself the same question everyday. I am on one other networking site, I joined AN only a few days ago because this other site is run by bigots, I had so many of my posts deleted for simply being pro choice or anti religious violence, it's abso…
I said I couldn't love anyone more than I loved my Mommy & Daddy. He said I would go to hell.
What the fuck?! You do not say that to a child!
I wish I hadn't been Confirmed but I know it would've sent my mom over the edge.
I had many arguments with my mom over not wanting to go to church!
I know I'm resurrecting an older thread, but my story is much like Renee's. I just never really believed. I think I lack the faith gene. I went through the motions, and as I got older, tried to get out of going to church, but my dad wouldn't let me.…
3rd grade Catholic School. Priest was talking to us about the 10 commandments. I said I couldn't love anyone more than I loved my Mommy & Daddy. He said I would go to hell. Because God requires us love no one above him. I'm serious..I said "Bullshit…

Michael said… - Thanks for the comment/support, Sophia.
Just got back from Korea and China. In those 2 countries and Japan, according to my very unscientific survey which I've been doing over the years - by asking as many Asians as possible first; "Do you have a religion?" second; "Do you go to church?" and third; "Do you believe in God?" The winning answers by far are: 1) Taoism or Budhism. 2) weddings and funerals 3) No.
I've asked a lot of them, and they seem to be more sensible than Americans and don't appear to have any social pressure to answer otherwise as I suspect happens in the US. cheers - Michael

- Hi, Sophia. If you think the Jesus Camp movie is scary... the actual camp is not all that far from my home. I live in Kansas City, Missouri and some of those people might be my neighbors. Now thats frightening! Sometimes I worry about that so much I can't sleep at night :-) Happily, believe it or not, there are quite a few sensible, inteligent people living here in the "Bible Belt".

- yeah how can they regress human process and negate everything people fought for.The scariest part for me was when she told her kid that 0.6 degree change is nothing and that global warming is fake.The power she had over those kids was indeed scary i have never seen brain washing like that since project paper clip and they weren't even using drugs like the government.She thinks they know she should know kids minds are easy to control and prey on.So whos your favorite out spoken atheist debater hmmm

I've been a good doo-bee.
Oh wait I smoked a good doobie...
Uh Oh....WICKERMAN !!!!!!!!!!!!
Dancing Poles????
Not the eyeballs!
No one needs it ... yet how many seem to insist on it.
Honestly, one of them could "rift" all she wants, and neither I nor my wife would be that upset. The other one is a big wimp. She's not likely to make a stink over it. She'll just pray harder. She's good at compartmentalizing that way.
It is true that many people take the path of religion to lead them out of destructive life styles.
It is also true that people can do the same thing without a reliance on faith (you just don't hear about it as much).
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.
I'm telling Miss Julie! . . (Sombody wants a spanking!!).
Seems like you could be in danger of getting more than just your tongue stuck, to a dancing pole at the north pole . . .
