New here - hello!
May 24, 2022 at 12:38 pm
Hi all!
I'm new here, and thought I would introduce myself. I'm an ex-Christian (for about ten years now). I teach sociology of religion, among other things, at a university. I'm married, no kids, and like to listen to and play music. Sometimes I get bored and go searching for forums....my overarching philosophy is Dinner. That's what makes the world go 'round. I also like to cook.

Welcome. You will find that a lot of us are fond of dinner.

Welcome Woof.
Does dinner occasionally include rabbits?

"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
