Fond, not fondle.....

Well, there is nothing like a Dame!

I described myself, in a previous post, as an atheist but I'm still background pissed off that my normality (in terms of not believing invented fairy stories) is defined in a religious term.

of course there's always the St. Paul approach:
"When I was a child I spake as a child, played as a child, and thought as a child, and believed in fairies, Santa Claus, the Tooth Fairy, and that God thing that my folks forced me to go to every Sunday.
"But when I became a man I put aside childish things, started thinking for myself and seeing the truth, and separating fact from fiction."

Perhaps the word you're looking for is humanist?

I think you may have hit the nail on the head - feels right !!
thank you.

I worship my check book every month. Obviously it is a good religion. It does not launder money for the mafia. And does not protect pedophiles. How many other religions can say that?

So, is this a lets join hands and all be religiously anti religious thread? I mean if it is, it's working.

YOU CAN BE ... A RELIGION OF ONE.

don't be a tit, there's no money in that!!
you need followers to make a profit out of religion, the more you have the bigger the cash return (check out every established religion and especially the cults), and being in a religion of one, well, that way lies bankruptcy.
