Some thoughts about my girlfriend's sexual past

[*Deidre*]

Deirdre: I've never actually met a deist in real life, at least not one that identifies as such and has given a decent amount of thought to it. So it's a bit hard for me to judge exactly how that would pan out in a relationship. Like you say, it's not going to be the deism that causes the problem, but what kind of thinking patterns the person has. I don't expect my partner to be woo-free, but I couldn't deal with someone who regularly makes it an issue and brings it in to everything. That's just a personal thing; it would get to me too much, and it's not fair on them, because I'd end up with "Bullshit, bullshit" on a loop in my brain during conversations that get wooey.

Trust me, it's atheism with poetic flourishes. 

lol I happen to think this too.
I wonder if Thomas Paine would have been an atheist in modern times, although atheism wasn't entirely frowned upon back then. Hard to say.

I had a brief layover in deism recently, before coming back to the position of atheism. Yes, woo would be a deal breaker now for me, mainly because the person into woo would eventually want me to believe his woo, too.
And I just want to talk about REAL things, not 'what if's' anymore. Yea, what if a deity exists. Okay...can we go to dinner now?
