Alyson Mitchell replied to Barry Adamson's discussion 'Anybody Got Any Ink?'"I have phantom ink. That is, I have many planned, but haven't done it yet. I'm kind of particular when it comes to my body, and don't want _just anyone_ etching their art into my skin. So I'm waiting until I find an artist…"
Alyson Mitchell replied to cookiesdaddy's discussion 'Should I Lie to Children?'"Wow. In comparison, my US History teacher was a souther white man with an NAACP membership. He was also present at the Kent State shooting, in the crowd.
He used to go on for ages about the importance of civil protesting, and how to fight off the…"

"Nah. Even in force they can't put up a decent argument. I've tried. They all stand back, call forth their champion to speak for them, and shake their heads in mock pity as they lose miserably without realising it. It's a real-life…"
Alyson Mitchell replied to Unseen's discussion 'I snickered the morning of 9/11'"I'm originally from New York - born and raised on Staten Island. We moved to Florida in mid-1993.
On 9/11 I was in History class. Second period American History, my junior year of high school. It was early in the year, and we were just…"
Alyson Mitchell replied to Emily Russell's discussion 'Christmas'"Christmas, in our house, is called "Yule", and it's a "day for all our family to show that we love each other".

Alyson Mitchell replied to Rocky Oliver (LotusGeek)'s discussion 'What xian/religious sayings get on your nerves?'"My general response is "Not recently, but I'm still waiting". "
Alyson Mitchell replied to Richmond's discussion 'Is the belief in Santa Harmful'"I have a three year old son. I have neither the desire nor the intention to instill the belief in Santa in my son. I prefer to teach my son the holiday is a time to do kind things for others and celebrate the love we have for our family members and…"
Alyson Mitchell replied to Keath Vickery's discussion 'I've been listening to Xian music recently. Just for fun'"I haven't attended a religious service of any kind since my deconversion. I did stumble on to the Christian radio station a while back. Same songs they were playing ten years ago. I never did really get into Christian music. Third Day was…"
Alyson Mitchell replied to Jerod's discussion 'Wondering how this point will come across'"I used to think just like this. And then I got tired of defending the (ever shrinking) presence of God in the stuff we measly humans hadn't figured out yet.

It seems we can no longer swing a dead cat in this country (the US) without hitting a religious extremist littering our public gathering places with poorly-written propaganda in an attempt to remind us any fun we may accidentally be having will send us immediately to the Flames of Hell.
Indeed, the family's most recent outing to the county playground was interrupted by a swath of these kind-hearted souls making a Sherman-esque march arm-in-arm across…
