Wayne Edgar commented on Allen's group 'Bible Belt Atheists'"Crap at the new group members! Did the Holidays cause the sudden influx or what?"
Wayne Edgar commented on Allen's group 'Bible Belt Atheists'"@ Jonel - Also in Alabama. When you walk out my door you can hear a church choir. I think I could stand banjos."
Wayne Edgar replied to Sol Invictus's discussion 'The most religious states in America... and the least'"I was thinking about that corelation myself when I read this article. I found a chart of high school graduates by state, which may not be the best data to compare to, but it was interesting information. I can't find the exact chart I saw…"

Alabama League of Reason
Are you a non believer in Alabama? You are no alone, We are a community of non believers who defend logical reason against the Christian oppression in Alabama. We believe decisions for Alabama should be based on human needs and not religious faith.
Wayne Edgar replied to Sol Invictus's discussion 'The most religious states in America... and the least'"Alabama.... Need I say more?
The up side is if I were to put a big red A on anything, I'm just taken as a University of Alabama fan."
Wayne Edgar commented on Wayne Edgar's blog post 'Standing on the Precipice - My introduction to the atheist community'"Thanks for all the comments. It really helps to be able to talk about this. I was thinking about changing the Religious status on Facebook to read "No thanks. I'm okay." I'm also reading the "Defend Yourself with…"
Mark Bray commented on Wayne Edgar's blog post 'Standing on the Precipice - My introduction to the atheist community'"Wayne, I know how you feel brother. I'm from the "edumacated" bible belt state of Tennessee, LOL. I have kept my Atheism under wraps for several years. My wife was the only person aware of my atheism, until 2 years ago. Still to this…"
Cara Coleen commented on Wayne Edgar's blog post 'Standing on the Precipice - My introduction to the atheist community'"Everyone makes great points.

Sophie commented on Wayne Edgar's blog post 'Standing on the Precipice - My introduction to the atheist community'"If you need help defending yourself post screen shots of your facebook discussion and post it into a blog in here. People will help you sort out a rational discussion before you blow your top and get de-friended on facebook or vise versa."
Ashli Axtell commented on Wayne Edgar's blog post 'Standing on the Precipice - My introduction to the atheist community'"Your position isn't an easy one to be in and I suspect a whole bunch of us have been in similar circumstances.

James commented on Wayne Edgar's blog post 'Standing on the Precipice - My introduction to the atheist community'"Thanks for sharing, Wayne. Everyone's situation will be different, so it's sometimes difficult to give absolute advice to follow. But I feel that a slow process will work best in your case. Simply stop taking place in anything religious…"

Standing on the Precipice - My introduction to the atheist community
Posted on August 19, 2010 at 12:26pm 9 Comments 0 Likes
I'd like to immediately get some demographics out of the way so you may have a better grasp of my situation. I'm 29 years old. I am a computer technician at a small company. I am happily married with two kids, ages seven and nine. I have always lived in Alabama. My hometown is located in south central Alabama, deep in the bible belt. Now that that is out of the way...
I want to thank the atheist community and the creators of this site for give people a place to…

I'm a moderator here and only myself of about 12 others right now would have been able to see it after you selected saving it. It went to a blog approval system that helps us keep out the spammers. It didn't go out to the general population yet. There are 4 or 5 admins who have access to more site activity and control than myself and I was wondering if it was a problem for them.
I always find the issue of changing faith within a marriage to be interesting. That has to be a challenge, especially with kids.

- Wayne, I just approved of your blog, but it's not in the blog section. I'm wondering if we have a technical problem that I need to alert one of the Admins to, or is there a reason that it might be missing that you know of such as you deleting it?
After reading your blog, I would like to bring up Google is very good at caching this site. So if you don't want your full name to be found by others, you may want to use something different. I personally just got rid of my last name so that it's not prominent.
Let me know on the blog, it was a good one.
