One of my two best friends is a Christian who is deeply entrenched within her church and faith. I, on the other hand, consider myself to be agnostic at best, and she knows this. We've had many…Continue

Joseph Barney replied to Kelsey Hayes's discussion 'Anyone out there?'"Oh cool my family on my mom's side is Mexican and on my father's side they're American cowboys. I speak a bit of Spanish as a result. I'm not really into the Mexica Movement actually especially because they basically want their…"
Jaret replied to Kelsey Hayes's discussion 'Jewelry & Friendship'"Attach the chain to the bottom of the cross and wear it upside down. If she really was giving you the gift as a non religious symbol, this wont offend her. If she gave it to you as a religious symbol she will be offended, but not anymore than you…"

Ed replied to Kelsey Hayes's discussion 'Anyone out there?'"Kelsey,
One way to "buy some time" is to tell your parents the next time they want you to go to church w/ them that you are exploring your faith and want to attend a different church. Now a perfect church to explore those options…"
Willie Farnaby replied to Kelsey Hayes's discussion 'Anyone out there?'"There's a word for that; it's called acedia.
I'm conflicted. I joined a UU church in the hopes that I would be able to have some conversation about where I am in my "I don't think so" journey, but I guess I just…"
Rachel replied to Kelsey Hayes's discussion 'Jewelry & Friendship'"The cross itself is not necessarily Christian. I can't think off hand what sources the cross has come from in religions other than Christianity, but what little I do recall is that it has multiple meanings, depending on which religion it may…"
Kelsey Hayes replied to Kelsey Hayes's discussion 'Anyone out there?'"Yeah, I live in Texas and (unfortunately) will be staying in Texas for college, so I definitely understand that. The way I figure it, I will tell anyone who asks me the truth because I refuse to deny my beliefs, but I won't go out of my way to…"
Joseph Barney replied to Kelsey Hayes's discussion 'Anyone out there?'"I'd wait until college and even there I'd be careful who I tell cuz in college there's some religious nuts too, so to speak. I've run into that a lot in Utah but it's a republican state. They tend to hang out in coffee shops…"

John Eisenhauer replied to Kelsey Hayes's discussion 'Anyone out there?'"Amen. Study Church history - Inquisitions, pogroms, witch burning. Even Nazi Germany arose out of the Anti Semitic culture fostered by both Catholicism & Protestantism (check out Martin Luther's…"
Kelsey Hayes commented on Courtney Hammett's blog post 'Wearing a cross?'"If you want to, then go for it. What the cross symbolizes to others isn't as important to what it means - or, in this case, doesn't mean - to you.
Besides, if anyone comments, you can always clarify."
Kelsey Hayes replied to Kelsey Hayes's discussion 'Anyone out there?'"I'm the same way, but also consider myself somewhat of an anti-theist in that I highly oppose organized religion. I know that may sound funny to most, but in my mind, even if I were to convert to a religion, I would not want to be a part of an…"

- Why are you here?
- I've been questioning things for a while, and since I live in a very small, very Christian community, I have had no room to discuss my views or ask questions with people who can give me more than a "Well, the Bible says this..." answer. I have decided that I need more than that, and hope to get answers to questions here.

- Christian
- Why you left your religion.
- Several things just didn't add up for me, and I absolutely hated the hypocrisy I found within the church and its members.

Nate Lundgren said… Hi there, plenty of people here can help you out including me :) Ask us anything, atheists are open to talk about any subject. NOTHING is taboo for us. We are very nice and decent people though so we are very opinionated about stuff. I hope you find what you are looking for here :)
