I’ve been handed them on the street. Found them in bus stations and train stations, too.

@RampantParanoia2365 My mistake! Didn’t realize I’d addressed you specifically. Just grossed out by the topic. I used to volunteer at an animal shelter, and roadkill was sometimes dropped off at our door.

I would like to block this thread, but I don’t know how.

I have quoted the Bible to some people online who leapt to the conclusion that I was Christian. When I told them that I was not, they generally freaked out. One of them threatened to kill me.

The World Bank must be abolished.

I’m shocked, SHOCKED I tell you! 🙄

It was Arisia. In Boston.

I know! Ironically some of the leaders of the convention we spoke at were harassing and molesting women at the con. Turned out that the rest of the con staff were covering it up.

Talk about Original Sin! 🤣

@Warl0k3
I don’t remember his name! All I remember was that A) he was selling his new book, B) he was one of the aggressive “New Atheists” who liked to mock and attack theists, and C) not too long after, it came out that he was sexually harassing women. He got cancelled for that, I think.

@Warl0k3
No offense meant! LOL, the president of American Atheists called me an “Uncle Tom atheist” when we were on a panel together, years ago. I understand the appeal of convincing the opposition (on both sides), but in long years of watching these conversations I’ve NEVER seen anyone convince anyone else.

The most I’ve seen is for people to understand that the people on the other side are just that: people. I think that’s a positive step.

@IAMgROOT @Warl0k3
In my long experience encouraging and observing dialogue between Christians and atheists, I’ve reached the conclusion that both sides come to the table with completely contradictory worldviews.

Reconciliation is, therefore, virtually impossible. The most you can hope to accomplish is some degree of mutual understanding and appreciation for the simple fact of each other’s essential humanity.

Good luck.

I had to send my son to a parochial elementary and middle school because I wouldn’t send a dog to the public schools in our city, and I couldn’t afford Montessori. I was afraid they’d convert him.

Instead he’s a bigger atheist than me!
