One friend loves the TV show "Medium" and constantly tells me it is based on a real woman and it's all true. She also claims to see auras and that astrology is accurate. Another is into Reiki and crystals, and pyramids, and has changed her religion a half dozen times. I always think she is trying to find something outside herself that she can find within. Of course believing in god, prayer, etc, isn't much different and most of the people I know believe that. Sometimes I want to scream, but I know it will do no good. They believe because they want to believe.

Your church has too much money and has spent it on expensive equipment that many businesses can't afford.<br /><br />Or<br /><br />2.) Robbie Thomas is far 'cheaper' in his spending than in what he charges.<br /><br />As for atheists being funny, I agree and disagree.<br /><br />Richard Dawkins, Christopher Hitchens, Daniel Dennett, Sam Harris, AC Grayling, Jerry Coyne, PZ Myers, Larry Moran and the countless other intellectuals (unfunny atheists) are extremely funny. <br /><br />Most religious people don't see a lot of what they have to say as being funny - and rightfully so, it is offensive to someone who so strong believe in the fairytales that are being attacked. <br /><br />Having said that, the truth is often not very funny and, at times, not comforting. Sometimes, at the expense of humour, it needs to be told just as it is.<br /><br />As for me, the people who know me would probably consider me to be "funny", "fun" and "easy going". I can take a joke and, in fact, love to joke around.<br /><br />Atheists enjoy life - we love life and feel lucky to actually be alive. It is for this reason that we hope religion doesn't survive - we want others to enjoy the opportunity to live, too.sarniaskeptichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02183125250166884307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1726306875167162020.post-62510435963623571712009-05-21T00:52:17.918-04:002009-05-21T00:52:17.918-04:00Two things.
