most of the people i grew up around where religious, my ma and pops where as moderate as possible though (thank....well the universe lol). but i grew up around alot of rude and bigoted extreme type ones too. but also i"ve met alot of atheists and agnostics who happen to try to offend people of religion on purpose, now both sides have the right i mean in america anyway. but don't you think ignorant religious people and people without belief who are ignorant are both in the wrong, both can…

Paula T. said… Thanks, Michael! Very glad to make your acquaintance :) I like heavy metal, too. Love Black Sabbath, Ozzy, Opeth, Led Zeppelin...but Rush is my all-time favorite band. I'm looking forward to your posts.

Paula T. said… I like Dio, too, and a bunch of other metal bands. I still enjoy some of the 80s rock and my sons and I saw Marilyn Manson a bunch of years ago. I've heard a bit of Katatonia and Gojira...still getting into that. I'm sure we like a lot of the same bands!
Paula T. said… Thanks, Michael :) Yep, I'm a metal head from way back, but most people who meet me would never guess lol
I think you're pretty cool, too...keep in mind that we all carry some kind of baggage, whether it's not having lots of friends (like me...I have great co-workers, but no BFF <-- hate that, but it fits) or feeling like you don't fit in. I'm kind of a loner and homebody and I know few atheists. A couple of people at work, but no circle of friends. There are great people on here, so I hope you find some groups you like. "Hang with Friends" is pretty active...and I have to spend more time here. Thanks again and I look forward to hearing more about you.

There is a video of the Pope's 'exorcism' caught on film. The man isn't demon possessed, there are likely no 'real' demons. He's just delusional and doesn't want to accept personal responsiblity for his own behavior for his own dysfunctional life.

There is an ad that reads ' Do you support 'traditional' marriage? Vote Now"! .
No, I don't support 'traditional' marriage because there is no such thing. I support heterosexual and same-sex couples marry each other legally , yes. 'Traditional' marriage promoters largely do not believe that heterosexual women are co-equal to their husbands. Their only purpose in 'traditional' marriage is to sexually satisfy their husbands if they can and raise children and do all…

i've got no problem with everyone saying "merry christmas" on christmas day. however, they've turned it into an entire holiday season where it lasts a month or more. in those situations it should be perfectly acceptable to say "happy holidays" or call it a…

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.
I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).
THAT was my sister, understand? She was a beautiful, life-loving, potty-mouthed…
