Fucking brilliant

Interity - personal unity between one's state values and one's actions. Is that a better definition, teach? :)

Hey, Herdman. I loved your self-description. I'm actually a native of Mississippi, so I know exactly how you feel. But if you life in Jackson, you have it good. Venture out into the country and see how the real aliens live. If you're nice, they'll invite you in for tea and maybe a little Jesus.

Consider radical unschooling. http://sandradodd.com/unschooling.html

As a homeschooler, to interact with other humans of all ages, backgrounds, and creeds, simply leave the house: museums, libraries, stores, restaurants, neighbors, clubs for various interests, nursing homes, Belize, dance/sports/theater, etc. classes. The list goes on.

There can be no comfort, no sanity, no love, and no faith without a grounding in truth. For you to have chosen truth over falsehood speaks well of you. Be careful, however, because falsehood comes creeping ever at your doorstep, like a harridan, promising ease and comfort but giving only pain and shame in the end.

I hear you. I feel like that whenever I see the confederate flag. Unfortunately, that happens nearly every day.

The only thing preventing me from descending in to a spiral of frustration about this most of the time is the realization that everyone has to start somewhere. I am sure that when I was still a Christian and just beginning to explore atheism that I said some stupid things. I am sure I acted like I knew more than I did. In short, I am sure I was an annoying buffoon much of the time.

Unfortunately, Mississippi is one of those places where it remains necessary for many of us to conceal our atheism for similar reasons. I do it mostly out of the fear that it would harm my ability to maintain productive working relationships with co-workers. It really is a shame that such would be a consideration in this day and age, especially when nobody sees anything wrong with throwing Jesus at others.

I'm in the process of setting up a page through Tumblr to help those interested in what it is like to live as an atheist in Mississippi learn about what we go through. I added your RSS feed so that brief summaries of your posts will appear there with linkbacks. Of course, I'd be happy to remove this if you'd rather not do this. You can find the page at http://msatheist.tumblr.com/

2009-02-28T20:25:00.000-08:00

I've heard the atheist argument "religious people are atheist about all but their own god" and never heard that particular response to it.

Excellent point, really excellent. Might even comment on my blog about it, with proper credit of course. :)

holy smokes, cull the herd indeed. Mississippi just made my Never Move There EVER list. I didn't even know I had one. But I do now. YEESH!!!!!

:) Love your first post. Look forward to reading more.

How about another draft of Shadow Boxing? I can put my hands on a draft (even a PDF) if that helps.

My main frustration here in Hattiesburg is that almost nobody uses turn signals.
