it's all about God

[Rainband]

Let me pop back in here as an ADMIN of this site. I/we are allowing this discussion to go on as long as it remains civil. It is attempting to not be that way so FAIR WARNING.

Sigh

As a card carrying member of the American Atheist and the FFRF, I can say with confidence there are many many more atheists in this country than people seem willing to acknowledge.

I am an active member of a Freethinker group out of Orlando and we have close to 200 members with an average of 75 attending regular monthly get-togethers and discussion groups. Almost all of us personally know many people who agree with our point of view but are afraid to publicly acknowledge it for fear of social reprercussions. I have yet to fully understand or even begin to comprehend why we are hated and feared so much!?!


And as far as Chula Vista...this list took me all of 3 minutes to come up with :

Windswept...you could have saved yourself those 3 minutes it took to find that, however long it took to copy/paste it and however long it takes everyone else to read your post if you had just read the whole thread before replying.

And btw, Steve's comment about Chula Vista was clearly in jest so no sense in getting your undies in a wad.

I wasn't arguing... I was just surprised that people are making a fuss over Steve's comment that was so obviously made in jest.

Goodness!

Southerngale, I was responding to Yarrah and Steph's posts anyway. Not the one above.

This child is 8? For an 8 yo.... he's definitely seeing the world differently.
