oneman commented on Erik T's group Partners of Theists
"I wasn't raised religious. But, for a three or four year span, I decided to give it an honest try. (Turns out its all BS, by the way. Surprise.)
My wife and met in Church during that time. We've been married for about six years now.…"

"Wait a minute. Are you trying to say that something my pastor told me ..... might not be true? *shudder* Next, you'll try to tell me that I should support the evils of condom use, eh?
Where will your blasphemy end?"

"Thanks, Joseph. Exactly.
Unfortunately, since we are men, we are too immature. Psychopaths, every one of us. We are not worthy to respond, and if we disagree, it is evidence of our extreme cruelty.
Its easy to get your feelings hurt, blame…"
oneman replied to Maruli Marulaki's discussion Research: The Benefits Of Monogamy in the group Atheist Singles
"Only women suffer pain at broken relationships? Does reading about the pain of men convince you of anything, or does it leave you cold and unmoved?
Caring about the suffering of women, but being indifferent to the suffering of men is not a virtue.…"
oneman replied to Maruli Marulaki's discussion Research: The Benefits Of Monogamy in the group Atheist Singles
"Is there any evidence that a monogamous life is better for women, or this is just a feeling?
What if research showed out that monogamy is worse for men...would that matter?
Does your definition of morals, "not harming others", apply to…"
oneman commented on Jeremy's blog post I got the server space, looking for a team.
"I'm a tech lead consultant for a major IT firm. 20 years dev experience. Mostly database-heavy web apps, many platforms. Though I do mostly corporate-ish, rather than consumer-ish, pretty stuff. But maybe I can help."

Meeting?
I feel alone out here in LA. Are there meetings? Anything? I have to say I am saddened that there are just 10 members. Can we meet? So tired of being silent.

- About Me
- I have always been curious about religious teachings. I think the reason is that I have an intellectually curious nature, and when I come accross ideas that are difficult to understand or seem contradictory yet are accepted ... it irritates me.
I like to KNOW things. Knowing things that are also TRUE. Knowing and believing things that are false makes you a fool. In the sense of "SOMEONE JUST SCAMMED YOU AND YOU WERE STUPID OR SCARED ENOUGH TO BE A SUCKER" type of fool. I won't always be able to help being foolish sometimes, but it should at least be a goal to avoid it, right?
I'm a computer guy currently working at one of the major record labels in Los Angeles. I grew up in Massachusetts, then later moved to Washington DC where I lived for most of the 90s. Taught some intro to computer classes at Howard U for awhile.
I look forward to sharing thoughts with people here. Beautiful inquisitive minds are too rare.

Dr. Terence Meaden said… - Hello Oneman, and welcome to this friendly meeting place with freethinkers who recognise that religion is a huge deception aimed at controlling vulnerable superstitious people, including defenceless children; and
how tragic and inexcusable it is that women and minorities have been oppressed these last two thousand years and even longer.
