Hello
After lurking for a couple of weeks, I figure it's about time I jump in. The thing that decided me was the link to Pat Condell. GREAT STUFF.
The B in grumpytheBright is capitalized because I thought the fact that I'm a Bright is more significant than that I'm grumpy. So many people either don't understand, or pretend they don't understand the Bright reference, that I decided to drop it, but the sites I visit won't let me. Now I'm just grumpy, screw the official record.
I just discovered another reason to prefer my old site to this one. Tabs aren't allowed here. What kind of shit is that? I'm leaving my old site because it seems to be dead. No one posts there anymore. http://atheists.meetup.com/boards/
I'm 65 years old, weigh 380 pounds and ride a really neat power wheelchair. I used to be very active, with a huge appetite, and when I got sick, loss of appetite was not one of the symptoms.
I've been an atheist since my teens. (Too many paragraphs starting with "I" here, but what the hell, it's an introduction.) It began to dawn on me that what Mom & Dad had told me about Santa and the Easter Bunny was also true about Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
I worked over 20 years at a job I hated, and didn't really start to live until at 50 I moved to Belize. Went there to live on my disability. I loved it there and would still be there if circumstances allowed. I taught cunnilingus to the locals, in a rather informal setting, and tried to persuade the Maya to resume their ancient practice of eating missionaries. Success in the latter endeavor was somewhat limited.
I've seen firsthand the damage that missionaries do, and have learned to despise them. I have absolutely no respect for christers and their preposterous beliefs, and don't mind letting them know that.
I deny the holy spirit.
So that's me.
