The Invisible Atheist

Well, I've had it, again, with a particular sub-forum here. I just can't take the smug, snarky comments directed towards non-christians any more. Granted, it's only a few people, but I'm tired of it. The comment that was the straw that broke the camel's back was about non-christians...

I’m glad this weekend is over. Big thunderstorms moved through here on Friday and Saturday night. We lost power in our house late Saturday night and it wasn’t repaired until Sunday afternoon. We have a generator, but, (here’s a big lesson learned) it was stored in the garage…which has electric...

Why the Invisible Atheist? As you can see, I’ve titled my blog “The Invisible Atheist.” A friend here has asked me why. Well, part of it comes from my experience in being actively shunned once in my life. When I left the last church I regularly attended, everyone, even people I had thought...

The rot really set in as my knowledge of the Bible increased. The first time I read the Bible, I did so from cover to cover. Each time before I opened it, I prayed for understanding. I was excited about reading the Bible because I really believed that the book held all the answers. What I found...

I feel that it is appropriate in this first blog entry to post something I've posted here a few times at CF. My journey to atheism. This is my "testimony" if you will. I've been writing and re-writing this for the last couple of years and I'm still not satisfied with it. It's hard for me to...
