This is my first Charles Darwin Day as an atheist.
Before now, I never gave Darwin much thought
Today is Darwin’s birthday. Born on February 2nd 1809. I look forward to the day that Darwin’s birthday is a respected national holiday.

Previously Insulted
As a previous believer I remember on occasion being insulted by the thought of atheism. Humorous, I know.
At church around 2004 the pastor said Gene Reddenbarry was an atheist. Being a huge Star Trek fan I was offended that the pastor would call someone an atheist who created such a great show about people accepting each other. I get it now. Without God we don’t have to hate those that think differently. Gene had it right.
When I used to watch those awards shows with Karen I would point out who didn’t thank God for their talent.
A couple of years ago I was in a Christian book store when I sneezed. No one blessed me.
About three years ago I heard about a book for non-believers so they could replace phrases with any God reference.
Today I picked up The God Delusion
After finishing the first 100 pages I decided to take a break and watch a TV show. Oddly enough that show ended up being “Supernatural.”
As of this moment I’m the only atheist that I know personally.
Does that mean atheists are rare. No it doesn’t. It does mean however we are not congregating together to worship anything. And were not asking for your money either.
After making my decision to stop believing in God I discovered that atheist are all over.
You’ve seen racists like the KKK congregate to show their support for racism. How many times have you seen non-racists congregate to support non-racism?
Why does religion suspend logic?
I’m not sure what the connection is. But I can see in my own journey to atheism that I maintained a lack of logic until the end when I broke free.
Who’s reading this blog?
The only two people I’ve shared it with so far is Karen and Stephen. This blog is not public yet and has been blocked from the search engines.
Right now it’s mostly for me to have a place to put all of my thoughts.
I’ll point it out when I take it public.
