Yes, unfortunately.   I - unfortunately - live in the Bible Belt area of the U.S.  Therefore, I am subject to many religious discriminations alone, not including the relationships that have been altered because of it.   For an…

Many of my family and friends are born again and when I am around them they try very hard not to bring up religion. Before the family gathers yearly for our reunions they warn each other not to talk religion. Very often, someone just cant stand the…

According to my wife "You don't believe in anything" She has no idea how much I do. Nature in it self is  the most amazing thing. I just don't have room for fiction. Well... yes I do, but I know the difference.

My family does not accept it... It's hard for me since I'm an aspie and a god seems so absurd for me. Just asking,why would god make me in a way I can't believe in him,and then send me to hell for it? D:

Two members of my immediate family are very religious.  I have no contact with them for now (my choice) because I just can't bear any more preaching or debate right now.  I am so glad that I found a sense of community and acceptance…

Friends that don't accept you for who you are aren't really friends are they?  Just remember there are a lot of us who are scientists and reasoned thinkers... maybe we need to begin a chain of coffee houses or something!

I find that in this backwards Georgia, I must spend most of my time alone and that I avoid most conversation for fear of too many questions being asked. Some of this is my fault for being too defensive, but I have had a few problems when I came out.…

My relationship with my husband has greatly improved since I embraced my atheism. As a neo-pagan I was a deeply unhappy person. My beliefs and community ultimately fostered unhealthy attitudes in me, and were unable or unwilling to provide help…

where we recognise that religion is a superstition and a fraud that is used to control people, and that it is tragic and inexcusable that women have been oppressed these last 2000 years.
