@pawsoned Thank you very much- both for the compliment and the sub!

Most atheist like calling them selves free thinkers, but only to free to think like the majority of atheist. I disagree with most atheist on most things, I am very liberal on some issues and very conservative on others, for instance I am tired of the racist and sexist conversations and asos tired of the Whao is me ai am an Atheist conversation. and that just angers my fellow atheist.

@Clemburke1111 It would be this way regardless of the group. Too many people don't want to take the time to see outside of their comfort bubble. Also, too many people seem to socialize with a sense of entitlement, which is where you get the "whoah me"s. Just keep paying attention, and work on keeping logic on the forefront! :)

Free thinking got us here so free thinking should be a natural propensity for atheists....not just HAVING it but ALLOWING it. Many atheists here on YT, Brett included, are guilty of the same dogmatic attitiude we run into with most theists. I do agree with your sentiment.

[choirgrrl]

@julzabro It's all about fitting in with the group, like high school. I hated high school then, why the heck would I like it now? (And I can also say I am just as guilty of this as anyone else, although over the years I have worked to change it and truly listen)

That dog scared the shit out of me! xD

@choirgrrl

Yes I agree you sound very rational and smart. I'm subbing too :)

[darpajian]

To quote the immortal Tagart (Blazing Saddles): "Ditto"!!! Like the vid.

[pppeeeppee]

@choirgrrl OMG... This is GOLD! I like the part where you say "Believe whatever you want to believe and if your in a group and that group goes against 1 of your beliefs leave that group."(Basically your saying.... "Yeah make your own rules as you go") This is such a good video. Had me cracking up. Would you mind if I show this video to a few of my colleagues?

[julzabro]

@choirgrrl I hated high school 2!!! I think we're all guilty of being this way at one point or another but, at least, some of us realize it and try to change it. That's why it's good to call out fellow atheists whenever necessary to try and reel em back in. ;)

@choirgrrl Yeah, and i really have to wonder about the mental state, and level of self esteem, heights of delusion etc.of an individual who gets all goosey thinking about 15 minutes of YouTube fame! Frightening..'~'
