This is my third time to the office. Im waiting for the Doctor to come in and whie waiting in the examination room, I spot this. I start flipping through it, and I am getting upset.

I wait for the doctor to come in. I immeditely ask him, hey what it this? why is it here? He blew me off and just said "oh its just an opinion piece" and I said, yeah, but who put it here, do you believe in this? And he just shrugged. I said, Im leaving, that is so wierd, thats weird to have in a doctors office. And I left. Ill never go back to that place.

I need a doctor who believes in science. You wanna be christain thats fine, but this literally says,for christain nationalism. gross.

Putnam CT, USA if anyone is curious. I want to post the photo in google maps reviews, but I am afraid to, even with my google account being a burner. Yes, it's the red pocket of an overall blue state, but, I just, was not expecting to see this.

Here's a quick thought about atheism.

So, what exactly is atheism? Is it a belief in nothing? Is it the realism of modern times or the abandonment of old traditions and customs? For me, atheism is basically believing in myself as a human being and member of society. It's believing that we're responsible for a lot in life, and that this isn't influenced by some powers looking down on us from Mount Olympus. Religion isn't all bad. It brings moral values, cohesion, restraint, and a sense of community. But people have tried religion. We remember the dark centuries, the greed, the hatred, and the immense selfishness of religions. I don't think you have to say you're religious if you believe in higher things, fate, or predestination. But never lose faith in yourself or your ability to chart your own course. Atheism reflects that for me.

28% of Americans are now religiously unaffiliated. A new study from Pew Research looks at how atheists, agnostics and those whose religion is "nothing in particular" view God, religion and morality.

Not a new article, but I find it reassuring sometimes knowing how many people identity as not having a religion.
