WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH KANSAS? NOTHING THAT A FEW WELL ORGANIZED AND CONNECTED ATHEISTS CAN'T FIX. FROM ENDING THE PRACTICE OF CHURCHES BEING POLLING PLACES, TO KEEPING IDIOTS FROM POLLUTING OUR SCIENCE STANDARDS..
Hello! My husband and I are moving to Kansas (DH starting a new job there) and I was hoping to be able to discuss how hard it will be, being an atheist living in the bible belt. I'm askeered! :-(

High School grad, some college........ could never afford the degree.
I've been well, thank you. It was good for me to go to this show tonight. There is something validating and soothing (right word?) about irreverence! Too bad you missed it!
yeah, I'll have to check back for that video. I like your picture. My town is getting a FFRF "Imagine No Religion" Billboard up for the month of April, and I'm looking forward to seeing what the city stirs up.
Ah . . . Kansas! Brother Sam knows people in Wichita. There has even been talk of a show at WSU. Of course, with the Sunflower State having 83,000 square miles and 105 counties, you could still be a long way away.
Atheists won all three prizes from Eric Hovind's Creation Minute website! PZ Myers won 1st place, and I won 2nd place. In 3rd was atheist Kirby Hobley. As soon as I receive the iPod Shuffle, I will put it on eBay and link to it here.

Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John are only the alleged authors of the parts that are, y'know, called the gospels of Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John; the rest is from some other people supposedly-'specially the Old Testament.

I don't think that there's *anyone* who wouldn't think those sorts of things are clearly in the realm of a sexual proposition. The gray area is more like when potentially ordinary conversation goes on but is... kinda "friendly".
Exactly SGecko. I can't believe that we have to even come up with a straight-faced answer to whether or not there could have been a sudden global flood that covered everything. It's like having to give a straight-faced answer to "The moon is made ...
I am subject to being corrected. My family has lived in South Africa for 6 generations. I have traveled and visited countries in Africa like Zambia, Malawi, Nigeria, Swaziland, Madagascar, Namibia etc. I think much is borne of my strong perception...
It takes wisdom from Pakistan to tell it like it is.
And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye (the guy in the panda suit gathering change for the WWF), but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? (as an example, the...
Can you imagine if this were a Pagan/Wiccan/Atheist couple withholding medical care from their child under the belief that herbs and aromatherapy would be the cure?

Why do I fight ? I fight for those that hate me. Because they are too weak to fight for themselves. They have the strength to hate, but not to fight. 1 in a 1000 gets over their hate. That is good enough for me.
