Guest Beyond_Belief Posted November 15, 2005 Share Posted November 15, 2005 Hi, I'm new to this sight, though I rejected Xian claims as a teenager and I'm now in my late 40's. I'm in the UK. Are there any other UK members? I also sometimes post on the Skeptics Annotated Bible forum. The testimonies here interest me. Xians use them as a weapon to gain converts; its as if only non-Xian religions and philosophies have negative sides! Having read many suspicious Xian testimonies about how ex-Pagans, Buddhists etc. were driven to suiccde and depresstion simply by practicing things like Yoga and divination its refreshing to see how bible-reading and Xian church-going are bad for people's health!

Guest JPD Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Two things I can't stand... 1.People who are intolerant of other people's cultures. and 2. The Dutch. I keed, I keed. Amsterdam is one helluva friendly town. But, I did have an argument on the way to the airport with a cabby who was convinced that JFK was a documentary. He started the convo with something like " Ah, Americans, bang bang. So you guys can't trust your government, huh? How do they get away with killing presidents and the like?'

Taphophilia Posted November 16, 2005 Share Posted November 16, 2005 Hello I'm another one across the great pond. I was on a creative writing site and the Christians would talk about how EVIL everything else was, but no one was ever allowed to write ANYTHING remotely negative about their religion or they would get offended.

I Broke Free Posted November 17, 2005 Share Posted November 17, 2005 Welcome to the board Beyond Belief I’m from England too, but the “New” one, not the “Old” one you are familiar with; New Hampshire to be exact. I live between Manchester and Portsmouth, so at least names must be a bit familiar to you. IBF I too would like to apologize for the idiot in the White House. I don't know what he did to your Prime Minister, but I'm sorry for that too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

godlessgrrl Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Hiya Beyond! And welcome. I'm not UK, but Anglophile American. About a third of my fam is UK and I have relatives in GB, in Worcestershire. Mom is from NZ. Her mom is from Australia. Her mom was from a little town in Wales somewhere (Penarth, iirc). Most of my g-ma's family is still over there. I hope I get to visit someday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

non conformist Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Hi, Beyond! I'm Dominican by birth....American by choice, residing in New Jersey. I went from one paradise to another. Yup, nothing like the sweet smell of Jersey. I'll also join my fellow 'Mericans in that apology for that whole Bush/Bliar (not a typo) thing. Our president is a Christian, so that explains a lot. Doesn't excuse it, but it explains it. Oh, and sorry for Madonna. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
