Being that this is an atheist website - I figure that means we're a bunch of free-thinking individuals who probably believe strongly in the Constitution. If you are interested in lending your voice…Continue

I don't know how this particular invite wound up on my FB page, but it did. (great rolling of the eyes) I clicked 'not attending', scrolled through some of the comments, and decided the whole thing…Continue

Johnny's post about Hobby Lobby gave me the idea to start this post. I have, for quite some time now, felt that there are two ways to vote - with your ballot, and with your dollar - and I think that…Continue

Atheismisms

Now that I'm an atheist, I need some new vocabulary. "Oh my God!", "Good Lord!", Jesus Christ!", and "God damn it" all have to go. What can I replace these God-isms with except for Atheism-isms -…Continue

Grady Jean replied to Garrison's discussion 'Atheismisms'"I prefer invoking the names of "Dead" gods, such as Odin or Zeus, or Quetzalcoatl (Believe me, that last one is tricky). I like the looks people give me, because frankly it's just effing hilarious. We were having some sort of banquet…"
Unindoctrinated replied to Garrison's discussion 'Atheismisms'"I find the best way to train yourself to stop using these type of religious expressions (and to have some fun at the expense of the deluded) is to modify them rather than replace them completely, i.e replace "Oh God" with "Oh…"

Mike G replied to Garrison's discussion 'Atheismisms'"My prefered is "Jesus Fucking Christ". I'll also use "Jesus H Fucking Christ on a goddamned cross", but that's a little time consuming. I've tried and failed to reliably use "By Odin's One…"

Rocky Oliver (LotusGeek) replied to Garrison's discussion 'Atheismisms'"I could never use that - my kids used to watch a show on Disney called That's So Raven, starring Raven Simone.

Seemingly All Alone and On My Own (or A Heartfelt Lament)
Posted on December 4, 2010 at 11:12am 17 Comments 0 Likes
I am surrounded by family, but feel like I'm all alone anyway. With the exception of my dad and myself, none of the rest of my family votes. They are not politically active at all. They support no causes, they do not stand up for their rights. I have put a link on my Facebook page with petitions for supporting the repeal of both DADT and DOMA and supporting the American Traveler Dignity Act, with messages on both that say "Please sign the petition and stand up for yourself and everyone else!"… Continue

This TSA bullshit is just the latest in a long line of attacks on our civil liberties, but it's really pissing me off. I wonder what it will take to finally push a thorough backlash against all of our stupid policies (formal and informal)? Seatbelt laws, helmet laws, mandatory insurance, gay military service bans, gay marriage bans, gay adoption bans, anti-prostitution laws, anti-gambling laws, the war on crime, the war on drugs, the war on terror, unfounded and illegal undeclared wars, corrupt… Continue
Sovereign Self
Posted on November 5, 2010 at 6:30pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
I, being of sound mind and body, do declare sovereignty over myself. I alone have the right to decide what I put into my mind and what I put into my body. I alone have the right to decide what I expose my mind and body to.
Wearing a seatbelt in a car is a good safety measure and wearing a helmet on a motorcycle is a life saving measure, but I should not be told that I have to do it. If I don't use seatbelts or helmets, than it will be my cold, dead body lying on the ground,…
