Do you know what's great about being with an atheist? They cry out YOUR name.
Sorry, I can't take this thread seriously anymore.

Perhaps not, but if you look at the bottom of the page at who's viewing this thread, his name has been on and off most of the day. And yet nothing from him? No contributions other than two posts? If this issue was as important to him as he feels it was, then he would be contributing far more than just two posts and lurking about all day when clearly, he's had the opportunity to stand up for himself or respond to what's being said... well I call bullshit on him.

Not enough nuance in the statement to definitively call Deidre a bigot.
Are you the kind of person who has long-term relationships where your values will definitely clash and mean something? I don't see that as discrimination - I wouldn't marry someone who was a social conservative. Or have a long-term relationship with them.
Are you the kind of person who just dates and fucks casually? I might say that them being a theist doesn't matter then. But that all depends on the context. I've had fun times with believers. But I wasn't looking to shack up with them either.
While I'm not interested in the idea of marriage, I don't fuck around on a casual basis. So dating to me, means just that...getting to know someone, to see if there might be potential for it to go to another level.That level would mean sex, and exclusivity. What's important to note about my desire to no longer date theists, is that theists themselves are often more hard pressed when it comes to their partners' religious views. When I was a Christian, I dated atheists, but I know manyyyy Christians who can't even conceive of that notion. Honestly, I think it's important to want to be able to share one's worldview with another, and this doesn't mean two atheists will always agree on things, but when 'God' is added into the mix, it has the potential to shape the relationship in ways many people don't think about, when they first ''click'' with someone.
If that is bigotry, so be it.

My last stop recently with my own 'faith journey' was deism. lol While deism doesn't have a dogma per se, it still has a 'way' of looking at a higher power. I'm not repelled by the idea that a higher power could very well exist, but there's no evidence for one, so why bother ruminating about it. Deism does allow more freedom of thought, though.
OP? Where did you go? We want to know.

I wasn't getting at you, peach. I know you better than that. Just in case that wasn't clear.

It is completely up to him.
Maybe he wants you to ban him .. just a little bit, the way Summer wants just a bit of spanking?

Oh I think he'll like that. I've been meaning to work out a relationship as his pimp. You know, set up his 'appointment' book, take my cut, and screen all the girls ahead of time.

What the hell is going on here?
Do I like it? I think I like it.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
