I grew/am growing up in a Swedenborgian family. I live with my grandparents; my grandfather being a minister of a small New Church group in Charlotte NC. The religion is a branch of Christianity that accepts science and the writings of a man named Emmanuel Swedenborg, a scientist of the 1700's. The religion interests me a great deal and is SO MUCH more tolerable than any other form of Christianity I have come across.…

~~My best friend (as of now) is a fundamentalist baptist, although she just calls herself Christian. (We'll call her Jen) We tend to get into "discussions" about faith and religion, and so I thought I'd share some interesting points I, or she, has brought up.~~
This weekend I spent the night at Jen's house and for some reason we got on the topic of the bible. So, she got out her cute little pink bible full of girly quotes and well organized references and decided to look for…

G'Day Melody,
I went to college in Gastonia and drove through Waxhaw a lifetime ago. I'm a Leaksville, now Eden, NC native who lives in Wise County, TX, but who longs to be back in NC or at least VA. I would like to found, start, inspire, whatever, a group of Tarheel atheists to assemble on this great platform. I've have a few atheists friends in this area and we get together often to commiserate about all the bible-pounders and holier-than-thou arshlochs with whom we mus deal in everyday life.
I am a very open atheist and you spoke of having a close friend who is a fundamentalist christian. Here's one for ya'; my NC hometown bride for the past 45-years is exactly that and then some; however, we have a very successful marriage, two successful children and 7 happy grandchildren. How's that accomplished? Mutual respect and a complete understanding of the First Amendment.
