Denise W commented on Sagacious Hawk's blog post 'My Dad Lives in a Bubble and it Pisses Me off.'"Hmmm. I look at it a couple of different ways. 1. The peer-reviewed studies speak for themselves. We are not the sole contributors, but we contribute disproportionately compared with, say, bovine flatulence. 2. Our greedy exploitation of our…"
Denise W commented on Sagacious Hawk's blog post 'My Dad Lives in a Bubble and it Pisses Me off.'"You hit it on the head when you noted that he has to see it for himself. Nothing you can do will pull him out of Plato's allegorical cave. On climate change, you could ask him --if you're prepared for him to get ugly-- why the…"
Denise W commented on Milly's blog post 'How can one see and still be so blind?'"There is a really terrific book that gets into this topic from a different angle, but definitely digs into cognitive dissonance by theists with respect to their own religions. Sex & God: How Religion Distorts Reality ~ I've been…"
Denise W commented on Joel Richards's blog post 'Science Vs. Religion'"I've shared this in the NAP-GA's page (National Atheist Party - Georgia chapter)...hoping you get some thoughts here. :-)"
Denise W commented on Horacio Martinez's blog post 'They Seem To Be Confused By The Questioning...'"Exactly. How dare we ask questions and think for ourselves?!"
Denise W commented on javier's blog post 'So I did a google seach for why there are so few Hispanic atheist.'"Big love. Know that you are never alone. :-) <3"
Denise W commented on javier's blog post 'So I did a google seach for why there are so few Hispanic atheist.'"I think the population is larger than is plainly perceived, primarily because of the deeply-rooted religious traditions embedded in many Hispanic cultures. Using my dad as my closest example of cognitive dissonance (not to spotlight him, but because…"
Denise W commented on Nathan Hevenstone's blog post 'Yoga a Science?'"I'm all for yoga, taichi, qi gong, pilates, etc. They are excellent stretching exercises, and yeah, moving meditation is a way to relax all the senses. I also agree with Alex that science supports meditation from a cognitive therapy…"
Denise W commented on Roam Yocham's blog post 'Richard Dawkins Is My Role Model'"(Repost...sorry...used to HTML and didn't use the proper link formatting here.)
There are certainly worse role models to have than Dawkins, for sure. I admire him, though I don't always necessarily agree with his approach. Same thing with…"

- About Me:
- I drink too much coffee...and write in green ink.
- Age
- 36-40
- Why are you here?
- To share thoughts...to be around like-minded thinking people, since in the "real" world, I'm surrounded by conservative christians - one downside of living in the South.
- The religion you left
- Christian
- Why you left your religion.
- Gradual process. I was taught *how* to think by a very devout parent who didn't expect that I actually would. Once I did apply the *how* - and started asking the more intense questions...well, the answers in truth were what pulled me away. Faith was not ever big on my list, so losing *belief* was pretty easy...and mostly painless.
