Okay, so today is the eighth anniversary of 9/11. I apparently made the "mistake" of posting the "Imagine No Religion" photo from the Richard Dawkins site on Facebook and then said that 9/11 was the result of religious craziness. Needless to say, my theist friends didn't care for that much (neither did my one atheist friend, either). My own sister called me a bigot. So...I'm just looking for more atheist friends to add because there is strength in numbers. If you would like to be my Facebook friend, you can find me here: http://www.facebook.com/that.tall.girl84. Please add a note saying you're from HAF. I appreciate your help.

But yeah, thanks to Whitney and Will for backing me up. I'm really grateful for that.

SOrry, I had to delete my FB account... was spending more time there than doing my studies. Easy to ignore WoW because it's on a different computer.
I did have over 400 atheist friends, though. Most I didn' tknow, but it was so cool to get their links and keep up on atheist-related matters. GREAT group of people! Once you get a few atheist friends, watch the "people you may know." After a month or so, they were ALL atheists that were connected to me by another one. I miss that.

I added everyone who sent me a friend request. Thanks again. I'm sure I'll need you all in the future, as these sorts of things seem to be happening on a weekly basis.

I have been thinking about how to come out of the closet on Facebook. There are so many friends I have there who have only known me as a christian for the last 18 years. Perhaps backing you up could be just the ticket. Besides, you are a northwesterner too, so there is a geographical kinship.

If they are friends that you haven't talked to much in a while they probably won't care or say anything. Even a guy I dated in high school has yet to comment about my posts that are anti-religious in nature and he is like a Jesus poster boy now and knows I use to be really into church.

Well, most of them are folks whom I have spent considerable time with in the past. We would all consider each other lifelong friends...even family. I would be very surprised if they didn't comment. Of course, they may be too speechless and utterly at a loss for words!
I will find out soon enough.

It took me some time to work up the nerve to make the change, but finally I realized there was no sense in hiding it anymore--if my friends could have "Christian" in their profile, I could have "Atheist" (although now I have Atheist/Pastafarian, hehe). Funny thing is, no one really noticed until I started posting atheist stuff on my wall. Most of my friends still don't bother me about it, which is nice.
May I ask what part of MT you're from? I have a lot of family over there. My dad was born in Miles City and raised in Butte.

Besides being beautiful, this area is jam-packed with churches. There are more church goers here than you can shake a stick at.
Spokane is a nice area as well, though. Most folks from here go there often for concerts, major airline flights, shopping or to see friends.

So, I accidently sent you a request from my wife's Facebook...sorry, mine is Cory Overby so if you see one from Catherine, that's was actually me, in the wrong account...sorry. It was a long night last night
