That's one of the most interesting parts of human nature, IMO. People seem to have an innate ability to completely ignore certain aspects of reality that don't fit into their personal vision of the world. Often without even realizing they do it. You'd think Atheists would be less prone to it seeing as we deal with it almost every time we deal with theists but alas, that is simply not the case.

Lengthy involved discussions. My sort of place!

I just got finished discussing with a Christian the phenomenon of the Pacific Cargo Cults and the messianic figure John Frum; and how they weren't similar to Christianity at all!!

Ha-ha.

I'll get to adorning my space at some point with photos music etc.
Then I'll get stuck into the groups.

I like A|N and although flit in and out of there have gotten my own little niche carved there. I'm much more active on h2g2 however. So I look forward to including T|A in my rounds.

Hi Dave,

I'm already over on AtheistNexus and on the Hitchhiker's Guide to The Galaxy Site: h2g2, but it's nice to just arrive and be welcomed so swiftly - thanks.

So where to go, what to do?

Thanks, glad to be here. I can't believe I just now found this place.

Seek and ye shall find!

Thanks, Dave.

thanks Dave!!!!:)

Hi Dave, thanks for the welcome! :)

thank you for the welcome. Just just aquainting myself with the site and all... look forward to 'meeting' you :)

I will be finishing my page asap! You are my very first friend here TY

Thanks. Its great to be here.

thank you very much for checking it out :D

Blog #2 post was coherent, but didn't have a conclusive point. Then in the Science post #1 it was not defensible as laid out. It was really a question of who gives your free will because clearly every reaction of your life is laid out. It's similar to the thinking that "It was his time." It struck me as very dogmatic. Maybe it's the devolution of the conversation?

I just read two pages of the original blogs Roger posted. I originally smelled a fundie in his first post. Seeing what it leads to, I think that I'll attempt to dodge the poo pile that is that conversation. Poo Pile for me, gold to the next guy!

Thank you for the add, Dave- love your comments on these threads!

TY for the welcome Dave. Lovin' the site so far & have lots more to explore.

Thank you! Yeah, it's really great to meet other rational minds in the midst of the South. Love the hat, btw. :)

Thanks :)

Ahh... Okay, that's makes a little more sense.
