My friends at 12 Steppers are aware I'm at least at 'agnostic' on the religious index scale. Not a biggee there for them.
I've been pondering being (staying) in the closet, so to speak, with atheism in regards to a very close friend of mine who is really into MCC.
It would be tough opening up about atheism, and then also (probably) going into how I still approve of his MCC attendance, but not because it is necessarily good for him to participate in a false religion, but as doing so POs quite a bunch of Fundamentalists and Evangelicals that I like seeing POd.
Additionally, coming out to him on this would just about have to be construed by him as a nudge, at least, to go atheist himself. I actually like him the way he is, and don't consider his brand of extreme scripture cherry picking in regards to MCC as being much of a problem.
Yeah, I wanna see the rank and file christer crowd all in turmoil from squabbling about whether or not to allow menstruating women out of their menstruation closets to attend church or not, but I'd rather not have any big Lesbian church lady friends of his be aware I have thoughts like that . . .

The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
