Suzanne Olson-Hyde commented on Reg The Fronkey Farmer's event 'Empowering Women through Secularism'"For whatever reason, and I don't care if it is political, Ireland is the only country with the balls to tell the Vatican to sod off, and after the death of a married women, who a hospital would not 'abort', which in actual fact, would…"
Suzanne Olson-Hyde replied to angela kozma's discussion 'world tearing it's self apart in the name of religion'"@angela - it depends on who one talks to - you will get both sides, gay equality for marriage etc, or they are damned to hell - and everything in between. e.g. I don't hate or discriminate against gays, I just don't approve of their…"
Suzanne Olson-Hyde replied to Brendan's discussion 'Budhism and Atheism'"@Ed - The sitting in a cave for eight years would be my downfall - they also have hungry ghosts. Masturbation is a no,no - not being married - they also, along with a lot of other religions, have a problem with sex - and there is pedophilia in their…"
Suzanne Olson-Hyde replied to Mercedes's discussion 'Why do atheists ask for so much proof to believe in God?'"Your comment was very gentle. I think she was very young, but didn't say her age, but she meant well. I also think when theists come onto a site like this, they are having doubts, or a just very naive as to what an atheist really is. This,…"
Suzanne Olson-Hyde commented on Misty: Baytheist Living!'s blog post 'So the Pope said I can go to heaven...'"@Rick - the catholic public relations machine is in full swing. I have no doubt this new pope may be a good guy, he has to prove it, by giving up all the pedophiles hiding in the vatican - that would be a good start."
Suzanne Olson-Hyde replied to G's discussion 'Is your trust in science based on faith or based on science?'"@Bob - Don't hate you, don't hate anybody, just feel sorry for you.
I am anti-catholic because of experience, I went through the catholic system. The same would be true of ex-muslim, ex-judaism, ex scientology, ex exclusive brethren,…"
Suzanne Olson-Hyde replied to G's discussion 'Is your trust in science based on faith or based on science?'"@Bobm - Don't hate you, don't hate anybody, just feel sorry for you.

Once again,Bob, what are your beliefs - Atheists aren't biased, they are realists. If religion produced, even more…"
Suzanne Olson-Hyde replied to G's discussion 'Is your trust in science based on faith or based on science?'"@Bob - you said all - I didn't say 'ALL" you read what you want to read, but I would say, a large proportion of them should be roundly condemned, brought to justice and jailed. What the church has done, because of its surreptitious,…"
Suzanne Olson-Hyde replied to Mercedes's discussion 'Why do atheists ask for so much proof to believe in God?'"@Chrisn - Brilliant first post - now we will expect a lot from you :) just joking.
The bible is what converted me from a christian to an atheist - when you don't cherry pick, read the contradictions - realise that the god of the…"

- Atheist
- About Me:
- I started questioning religion when I was around ten years old. I was 'married' to a christian for 20 years, have three brilliant children - divorced. Have for the last 20 odd years lived de facto. Am so pleased more Atheists are banding together to counter argue religion. I used to be a quiet Atheist, but found I had to have very logical discussions, and make a christian understand that they had to convince me of god, not the other way around. They want to believe in fairies or whatever, go for it, just leave me out of the delusions.
I actually wouldn't care what people believe in, It is when it intrudes on everybody's life, intrudes into secular schools, the charlatans and soothsayers earning heaps from gullible sheep,then there are the hierarchies of all religions, who simply cannot believe in a higher power, when in fact they are committing crimes against humanity.

- Why are you here?
- We need teamwork to overcome the xians and fundamentalists that are so vocal, hypocritical and becoming more violent and abusive, all in the name of religion. To expose the fact that 'good people' can kill, maim, rape, torture all in the name of their god.
The more Atheists the merrier.
- The religion you left
- Christian
- Why you left your religion.
- General hypocrisy of the church, the violence, misogyny and war done in the name of religion made me start to question bible, at Catechism class, Ah, the Mysteries of God were abundant. That started me on the road to really analyze the Bible. In some of the posts people don't like being given the label Atheist, but it has to start somewhere. The more 'Atheists' to come out of the closet, the better, the religious people generally will realize just how many there are. We have to call ourselves something that joins us all. Just like Gays, the more that come out, people will realize just how many we are.

Nate Lundgren said… Thank you, it has not been easy but it has been worth every bit of painful emotion to now be free of mormonism and religious ways of thinking. I still have a ways to go before my life is healthy and enjoyable but I'm working on it one day at a time. Thanks again for adding me as a friend. :)

Andre Rabie said… I'm a Soto Zen Buddhist, specific sect different from the others in that it is an order of Japanese Buddhism which doesn't believe in reincarnation or anything spiritual, I'm not a vegetarian, which means we concentrate more on concentration meditation counting your breath, which you can do before you go to bed instead of counting sheep. I can teach you! this much about it. Reincarnation happens every second because every second is new and you have been granted the same body and a chance to live life again. I donno enough about it to defend it but I think you're talking about Tibetan and Indian Buddhism, religions merge with the ones before them like many pagan rituals are in Christianity. Or they take a local flavor. I consider myself an Atheist, in that if there IS a god I don't wanna follow the rules, I wanna rebel, I'll read your links as soon as I can.
