"As someone who was not in the church or any other, i cautiously suggest looking into improving social skills and ways to "make friends". The fact is, you can make a new family. People, whether in your shoes or not, are often in…"

"Yeah, being Canadian doesn't count. Atheism is default over there. It's like being American and admitting you like hot dogs."

"Yeah, I like how that's a "get out of jail free" card. Anytime you take it to far with reasonableness, they can always say the devil is trying to trick them."

"there are a couple of things to keep in mind, there is a strain of homophobia in the working class black community perhaps not as murderous as in the working class white community but still there.

"I heard an interview where he discusses this. I felt it was two-fold. He was criticizing the atheist community on very specious grounds while simultaneously stating that he is agnostic. I felt his claims of agnosticism were sincere despite his barbs…"
Sarsippious Jackson replied to estevan's discussion Anti-gay, black atheists have been getting too much attention recently in the group Black Freethought
"None of us are 100% certain. Throwing an entire group under the bus in an attempt to protect yourself is cowardly. He specifically made it clear that he was calling himself an agnostic because he could not identify with a simple-minded stereotype of…"

"On the spectrum, atheism can include agnosticism. I don't see anything cowardly about Tyson's view although based on one interview, i get the impression he hasn't reflected on the matter much and is mostly uncertain."

"I attended a southern Christian church in Virginia, and I don't remember a lot of hateful rhetoric regarding gays either. Like you, the few gay people in our community were described as funny. I remember a vague sense of being taught that…"
