"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

An outspoken atheist in the bible belt and an anti-conservative...You da man!
Welcome

I have been an atheist since I was in my early 20s and I am 51 years old now. Living in the Bible Belt of the good ole U.S. of A. is not too conducive to my blood pressure, but I still manage to keep my sanity. I am the village atheist of my town, and quite an outspoken one at that.
I don't like Conservatives, especially the Conservative Christians. I call them for what they are: Dominionists. I view myself as an anti-Dominionist. Did I say I don't like Conservative Christian Dominionist traitors? I am being reserved in my feelings about them at this time.
I am a secular humanist too, and a skeptic of claims of the paranormal, UFOs, cryptozoology, and ancient aliens. Don't even get me started on that one!
I once was active in Americans United for the Separation of Church and State, was active in the Atlanta Freethought Society for a short time. But now that I am disabled and can not work any more, I don't get out of the house too often, but I still manage to get around.
Anyway...here I am. Nice to make all of your acquaintances, and looking forward to participating in and starting some good conversations.
Hiyas, Elf. I've come across a couple of your posts already, and am looking forward to reading more -- you seem pretty goddamned sensible.
