It’s Actually Good to be an Atheist, Nowadays

There are days I think I spend too much time online. I sometimes have to force myself to walk away and attempt to be productive. But the lure of the siren is always there, just across the room, maybe sitting quietly in another, but still there, ever so alluring, knowing it won’t be long before I’m there behind the keyboard, checking to make sure the world hadn’t ended while I was away. I know that sounds a little over dramatic, and it’s meant to be, in a way, to demonstrate how much many of us have become dependent on those social media applications and our race making the cleverest, and smartest, post of the day. We all complete to Win the Internet, even if it’s just for the day.

Atheist: Say it Out Loud

I don’t pretend to speak for anyone but myself so I want to say, as an atheist, that I don’t care what you think about me being an atheist.

It’s About Free Speech

I think it’s about time that the Supreme Court finally had the courage to rule, hopefully finally, on a frr speech/ frrdom of religion case. Just because I’m an atheist does not mean I cannot or should not supprt the 1st Amendment which guarantees both. Consider being an atheist and not having the right to speak out against religion. It really hasn’t been thar long ago where states had lawa against atheism and like some others in society, were locked firmly in the closet.
