Hello
Hi,
My name is Thea and I'm an Atheist.
I was born 53 years ago.. a Jew, grew up with Italian Catholics, became a Spiritualist Minister in my early 20s,
still interested in Buddhism (most Buddhist don't believe in god).

And I'm tired on not being able to express my 'beliefs'.

I am a Tai Chi practioner and go to class at least twice a week. Sometimes we go out afterward for Pizza and Beer.
This week we did, and god was brought up in passing. I mumbled under my breath to the person sitting next to me that I was an Atheist only to be told that in certain circumstances I would believe in god.. and she knew this to be true.

My 2 children are atheists as well.. and, at least I can be me when I'm with them.

So.. I look for places where I'm not looked at like some ignorant person because of my non belief.
