S.S. posted a blog postbam!
Since I finally came to the conclusion that I'm an atheist, I've had to do some tough things. As many of you who've deconverted from theism know... it's about the farthest thing from easy, especially if most of the people you know--most of the people you love--are theists. But you know what? I've done the hard things anyway because I've recently developed an extremely low tolerance for bullshit, especially the bullshit that spews out of my own mouth. I believe I can thank my atheism for that,…See More
S.S. replied to Craig Nomazlab's discussion 'Things that are not in the Bible'"Thanks for posting this! :) I ADORE cracked.com and they have a TON of great posts on the Bible and religion."

Brian Stewart commented on S.S.'s blog post 'i'm finally an atheist.'"Read the book "Courage to Doubt" written by a friend of mine Steve Hurlin (Raider Books NY) who was a Christian missionary who became atheist. His journey was interesting and the social dissonance quite violent...good easy read"

Mr Good Without God commented on S.S.'s blog post 'i'm finally an atheist.'"S.S.,
First let me say congratulations. I remember the personal joy I felt when I first realized there was no god and came to accept reality as it really is. Life seemed even more beautiful and precious at that moment and I am sure you would…"

Dustin commented on S.S.'s blog post 'i'm finally an atheist.'"It is beautiful to know that another human being is washed away of their religious beliefs.
Reality is much more rewarding. "

So I'm not good at staying active on social networking sites like this... I told myself I was going to but it didn't happen haha. Aaaaanyways, for the past month or so I've been continuing my feverish research and I can confidently (on the internet, at least) say that I'm an atheist. Woo!
Until last night my boyfriend was the only person who knew, but I sent my (hardcore Christian) best friend a facebook message (because I'm too much of a chicken to tell him…

The critical question for our generation--and for every generation--is this: If you could have heaven, with no sickness, and with all the friends you ever had on earth, and all the food you ever liked, and all the leisure activities you ever enjoyed, and all the natural beauties you ever saw, all the physical pleasures you ever tasted, and no human conflict or any natural disasters, could you be satisfied with heaven, if Christ was not there?

So the post I made in the "Coming Out Godless" group got a lot of awesome feedback.... that's super cool. :) I feel like I've found a great place to talk to people about this stuff.
Since it's the beginning of the quarter and I'm not totally bogged down with schoolwork yet, I've started doing some pretty heavy research. It's kind of difficult to know where to begin, so I'm starting with some of the names/books/videos/etc that people mentioned in the comments on my first…
