Atheist Challenge: Day 6
6. How do you feel about so-called “militant atheists” such as Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, and Sam Harris?
Who’s calling them “militant Atheists”? Do we call the Pope a militant Christian? I think they are highly educated and very brave that they can be so public about their beliefs. I read one of Sam Harris’ books last year. I just loved it.
Atheist Challenge: Day 5
5.Did you lose any friends because you decided to be an atheist? Did your family flip out?
I havent lost any friends because of it. But I’ve lost a few boyfriends because of it. I’ve been very fortunate that I’ve had friends that are open minded about religion. They dont bother me about it, I dont bother them about it. And when we do discuss religion, we can have civilized...
Atheist Challenge: Day 4
4. Do you think religion is obsolete and should be wiped completely off the face of the Earth, or does some good come out of it?
More than obsolete, I think religion is HARMFUL!! Think about the wars and hate and bigotry that goes on in the name of religion. We dont need that on the planet.
And quite frankly, if you need religion to tell you not to kill someone or be good to your parents, you...

Hardest job in the Army?
So after listening to a co-worker whine on about how Army wives have the hardest job in the Army, I snapped. I would just like to say that THIS Army wife does indeed think that SOLDIERS have the hardest job in the Army. And if you, as a spouse, truly believe your life is harder, I want you to think about trying to go to sleep tonight with your boots right next to your tiny ass cot because you...

Atheist Challenge: Day 3
3. Are you a more outspoken or more apathetic atheist? Why?
In my daily life, I’m fairly apathetic about it. I dont go around broadcasting my lack of religion. People arent too fond of Atheists. And I’m not going to walk around telling people they are wrong or stupid. I dont want the religious nuts telling me that either. But online, I can be totally outspoken about it. I can say...

Atheist Challenge: Day 2
2.What religion did you grow up with? Did you have positive or negative experiences with religion?
As I said in my Day 1 post, I grew up in an Atheist household. But the main religion I was confronted with as an adolescent was Southern Baptist.
I didn’t have any hugely negative experiences with it. I just never bought into the claims that there was only one “God” and I was...

Atheist Challenge: Day 1
1. At what point did you know you were an atheist? Why did you become one, what were the factors leading up to the decision, if you weren’t always one?
I was never religious. Religion wasn’t in our home. My parents are Atheists. My mother’s parents are Atheists. My father’s parents are European, so they are over religion in general. As a 3rd generation Atheist, it wasn’t a...

Everyone loves challenges! I made one for the atheist community on Tumblr to enjoy. A bunch of controversial, fun-to-discuss stuff here.

Did you repost?
A boy writes a letter to God. Dear God, why do you let bad things happen in our schools? God replied “Dear Son, I’m not allowed in your schools.” How many of you will be brave enough to RE-POST
I saw this on Facebook the other day. It really irked me. There are very serious reasons we have separation of church and state. And the people that post this just show how uneducated...
Posting?
