Ruth Anthony-Gardner said… Welcome, Victoria! Glad you could join us. :D
Please consider joining a group to meet people and talk about anything that's on your mind, Hang With Friends. You might also like Young Atheist Women, Young Atheists, Refugees from the Bible Belt, Women Atheists, Female Atheists, and possibly Feminist Atheists.
Try putting your location into the appropriate fields in Members>Advanced Search to find people nearby.
I also recommend Eco-Logical and Climate Concerns, since the climate is changing so drastically.
After you've searched for topics of interest in "Groups" above and in the "Forums", don't forget to look at recent activity which hides along the right margin of the page all the way at the bottom.
On a personal note, I've developed an animated gif technique, sort of “pull quote marries slideshow”. Samples are scattered across various groups, but you can find them easily by going to my twitter account. Each tweet has a link (after the description and before the hashtags) to a visually rich example here at Atheist Nexus. If you like them, please follow me

Joseph P said… Oh wow. Yeah, I know a bit about the mega-church culture of Colorado. The state isn't as bad as many, but there's definitely a deep religious-streak.
I can see the need for people to talk to, when you're not even in one of the larger urban areas. No way you'll find a local atheism group, as far out as you are. Most places need a clustered population of at least half a million to get a good-sized group going.
I don't suppose you have any friends who are atheists, huh?
Well, check around with the various groups on here. Lots of random conversation going on and plenty of people to connect with. Just jump in and get involved. Let me know if there are any particular subjects you're interested in.
