I say all the "god" curses.   Whatever, it's too much effort to change.  At least now I can say them without worrying about going to hell.

my great aunt taught me how to read tarot because it was passed down in our gypsy scilian family for generations.  i still know all of the meanings, and i'm actually pretty good at it to a creepy level.  i chaulk it up to my being able to read people and their body language and twisting my knowledge of the cards meanings in order to come to my conclusions.

(giggles)

I did that for a couple of months when I was 15. Was freaky lucky and it impressed people, I'd put on a really serious face and go all goth on them. Had a lot of fun :)      Oh except I was palm reading instead of Tarot, but same shyte right ;P

I was going to say, but no need of that.

Nice work, Reggie.

My only sin is using "goddamn" and "Jesus" when I'm swearing, and I only do it to make guttural, fun, swearing combos.

e.g. "Jumping Ju-Jitsu Jesus"

And singing along to "The Catalyst".

My big "sin" used to be telling other atheists that they shouldn't claim to be absolutely certain that there is no god.  Having been an atheist since the dark days when almost all of us were in the closet I found that most who were "out" were falling into that trap without realizing that they were being played by the theists.  Fortunately, these days there are a lot more of us and it seems as if almost every new atheist understands the game theists are trying to play:  They are playing the "I am going to shift the burden of proof by goading you into claiming certainty" game.

 

I also sometimes mention god as if I believed.  This is a linguistic habit I learned at a very young age.  It would be difficult to unlearn, and I see no reason to unlearn it because it helps me avoid prejudice on occasion.

Very very interesting, I'm happy for you, there are still oodles of agnostics and atheists who tow that exact religious paradigm. And it drives me a little nuts, so yes, it is a great atheist sin!

I think "Spirit in the Sky" is a fantastic song.

 

There, I said it.

I consciously stopped saying "bless you" after people sneezed, but only because the habit of doing so emerged during the plague years in Europe. No more plague, no more use for the phrase. I still say God only knows because if you think about it, saying that means "only God knows something that no one else does" and since there is no God, it now means that no one knows, period.
