"I think it adds a bit of vulnerability to the victims. We spend most of our time clothed, and we only undress when we feel like we're in a safe environment (at least for many in American culture) That vulnerability may be a sign of social…"

Dreams

I want to talk about dreams. Not the kind that you have while you sleep. Did you had dreams while being a child? What did you wanted to do in life? Have you succeeded at all or are you doing now…Continue

How open-minded are you when it comes to jokes? How far does your sense of humour go? Do you believe there are things people shouldn't joke about? Are there any topics you think should be avoided…Continue

I have a question for those that haven't been part of any religion or haven't believed that there is any god for at least 15-20 years. What has changed since you decided to stop being part of a…Continue
What the hell is atheism!?!?
Started this discussion. Last reply by Julien Jan 20, 2011. 72 Replies 0 Likes
I'm not an atheist. How can you not believe in something that doesn't exist? That's way too convoluted for me. This quote by A. Whitney Brown really got me thinking about this again. What is…Continue

Shawn Close replied to Julien's discussion 'Nudity in horror movies' in the group Atheist Horror Fanatics
"Can you go to America with no skills, no job experience, no money?
Not generally, though some sneak in with very little.
Generally, You need some reason to legally live here, such as to be a student, work or rejoin family.
Another way is if you can…"
Danny Sanchez replied to Julien's discussion 'Prostitution'"I think prostitution should be a normal part of a healthy society. It should definitely be legal.
I got a rub and tug once from a masseuse at a hotel in Mexico. I did not plan it but she offered and I accepted. I couldn't finish…"
Julien replied to Julien's discussion 'Film / movie' in the group Think Atheist Movie Review"Thanks for replying in spite of this being an old thread. So far, these terms have been used randomly, and I can't figure out any other difference between them."
Julien replied to Julien's discussion ''So bad it's good.'' in the group Think Atheist Movie Review"I'm with you on this one. It is bad, but I am not really feeling like laughing, but starting to think why am I watching it in the first place. But I like to finish what I start and I watch it all the way through."
oneinfinity replied to Julien's discussion 'Film / movie' in the group Think Atheist Movie Review"I know this is a really old thread, but anyway, film and movie are interchangeable terms. Though "movie" is the same kind of term as "talkie." So, "movie" is a shortened version of "moving picture.""
oneinfinity replied to Julien's discussion ''So bad it's good.'' in the group Think Atheist Movie Review"I guess I just don't have the sense of humor required to really enjoy those movies that have achieved cult status because "they're so bad they're good," meaning, as has been noted, they're so bad that they're…"
Max Bjork replied to Julien's discussion ''So bad it's good.'' in the group Think Atheist Movie Review"Yeah I agree. If I'm laughing AT the movie, I'm still laughing, so still somewhat having a good time. That's the only time I might say that it's so bad it's good.
Examples include "In the Name of the…"
Julien replied to Julien's discussion 'LGBT adoption'"You should be raising them to become good, compassionate human beings, free to make their own choices and mistakes - not hanging your own psychological baggage on them -be it sexuality, religion, bigotry.
This is good stuff."
basement kitteh replied to Julien's discussion 'Death'"I've never been too worried about the afterlife. Who knows what happens after people die? Time will show, for each.
I think it'd make sense to recycle the souls, it would be way more economical than living once and throwing the…"
Julien replied to Julien's discussion 'Death'"You have to really pick your moment, and really want forgiveness, otherwise it won't work. :) It won't work anyway you do it... but some forget to ask for forgiveness and desperately grab on to the little life they have left in them…"
Star replied to Julien's discussion 'Death'"Anne thank you for also sharing your personal experience with death.
Death, like birth is something all living creatures will go through, so why live in fear of it? I found some comfort in the Mark Twain quote for my loss, and as a way to…"
IEatDinosaurMeat replied to Julien's discussion 'Death'"I agree,
When you die, basically you become a meme.
A friend told me "You live as long as the last person that remembers you dies""
IEatDinosaurMeat replied to Julien's discussion 'Death'"I disagree on this point. I don't find effing up and there being a god any worse, as long as you ask for forgiveness you're fireproof *snicker*"
Laura Johnson replied to Julien's discussion 'Death'"I find Mark Twain's quote consoling. " I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it." Dying comes with the territory. I'm…"
