Evolution and Those Left Behind
I still love the people of the church. I cared for them my entire life.... I didn’t want to leave them behind but I couldn't be like them anymore.
Atheism Versus the Easter Bunny
Many Christians accuse atheists of having a hidden agenda, which I think takes a special blend of nerve and insanity, considering that their highest priority is to convert the entire world.
People Are Being Beaten
I’ve only just now realized that no one in the UMC is going to change their minds. The only thing I see happening is that the LGBT will be more resented afterwards.
Chicken in Church (and It’s Not Potluck)

Not Experiencing God
I won't continue to pursue a relationship with someone who has ignored me my entire life.
A Challenge to My Christian Friends
How do you know that what you believe is true? Don't call me a pig and walk away. I would like some real conversation.

No one has challenged me to fisticuffs, pistols, or dueling Bibles. However, they really don’t know what to say when I tell them I'm an atheist.
Can’t We Still Be Friends?
