Secular Confessions

[misfit]

Nope, I think it's just late! I'm into this show.

I confess that I have two obese hamsters. They barely fit up the play tubes!

[The10Eels]

I confess they are featuring deep fried twinkies and candy bars on tv right now, and they look SO gross... I have friends that eat like 10 of them during the fair, and I don't know how they do it! *stomach turning*

[The10Eels]

I confess it seems like I haven't seen you around much Sarah...
I confess I miss you!

[Bean]

I confess that when I was a teenager, I was one of those obnoxious people that gave atheists a bad name.

I confess that when I was a teenager a few years later I started listening to Christian rock and going to church so a boy would like me.

I confess that it doesn't matter how many times I've read the Bible, I still can't believe people believe it verbatim.

[AlishaAnew]

neat idea!

[Nate'sMama]

I confess that even though I am Christian I don't believe everything in the Bible.

I confess I don't feel comfortable in the Christian forum because I know people on there are against gay marriage.

[AlishaAnew]

You all pretty much know I'm pretty relaxed in the religion department. I don't let much bother me and I think I have a pretty good sense of humor.

Confession: I like Carrie Underwood.
Confession 2: I like the song Jesus Take the Wheel
Confession 3: I do a 'God voice' whenever she says ^ with, "Sorry, I forgot my drivers license.' or 'Sorry, Jesus is taking his lunch right now."

I'm horrible I know.

I love her! She is amazing.

I confess I don't talk about religion IRL
I confess I like Jesus take the wheel too! Her voice is so outrageous, it doesn't matter what she sings. I always like it!
I confess when I first joined this site I wouldn't DARE say I didn't believe in the whole religious thing.

DF and I always get in debates about religion. Its funny how much we agree.

I confess I wonder how long this will stay a happy thread.

You never know

I confess I love you ladies soooo much!!
I too confess when I first joined APA I couldn't bring myself to flat out say "I don't believe it"
I confess I still haven't said that to my mom, and still go to church with her just to keep her off my back...
I confess I daydream/sleep through the service whenever I go... lol

bwahahahahah That is in my mind every time I post in a confessions thread!

Same here. Like in the confession box thingy

I'm still a closet atheist. My mom called me on Good Friday and asked me if I ate meat... I did. I didn't have the heart to tell her, but I should have, but it would have ruined her weekend. I guess she'll figure it out, you know? I told her years ago that I just "wasn't religious" and she flipped, slapped me upside the head and screamed at me that she GAVE ME THAT RELIGION. Or something of the sort.

Sorry about your mom. I once told my mom(Before she passed) that I wanted to be cremated and she yelled at me that that is like me burning in hell
Why cant you eat me on Good Friday?

I confess everytime a mom and son in boyscouts come selling cookies and popcorn to my door i look down on the parent for allowing their child to be part of an organization that discriminates

i confress i role my eyes way to often at religion

me too

I confess it seems like I haven't seen you around much Sarah...
I confess I miss you!

I know! I miss her goofy arse!


I confess I have never owned a bible...

[girlwonder]

I confess that I avoid coming into this room very much because I get mad and/or upset when I think about religion and all the problems it can cause between people. It's much easier to be an ostrich...

I confess that I also avoid talking much in the threads in this room because there are a lot of incredibly intelligent and educated people having deep convo's and I just don't want to concentrate that much. I'm on here to relax, baby!

I confess that I love this forum for that exact reason. I love intelligent convos, even if I don't agree with everything being said lol

[shutterbird]

Why cant you eat me on Good Friday?

Love ya girlie, but I don't have the taste for people.

[girlwonder]

I love it, too. On some days this is the only place where I get a conversation deeper than "Shoes and socks! Shoes and socks! Let's put on your shoes and socks! Yaaaayyyyy!!!"

But it also makes me realize how much I feel like my brain is crumbling and turning to mush, and even more quickly since the baby.

[stephmama]

I confess I love Jesus jokes.


I confess I'm scared to go out and meet people in my community because I know they're all Jesus freaks.


I confess I can't believe people believe the Bible either.

[shutterbird]

I feel the same. It's so hard to spit out an eloquent sentence sometimes, and I usually can't even get across what I WANT to say then.

[stephmama]

I confess I don't understand how someone can be so blind. I don't get blind faith at all. How can you just believe that it is what it is because some old book told you so? I DON'T GET IT.


Ok, had to get that out.

[shutterbird]

I was at a park a few weeks ago waiting for some clients to show up when I saw another photographer. We waited for our people together and had a long conversation. She was SO nice and then... "Today is SO beautiful. I feel so blessed that the Lord gave us this beautiful day." Five minutes later her clients showed up and she said the SAME thing to them. I was like ...... I confess that's SO unprofessional. The couple did look a little uncomfortable - they gave each other a look before responding. I doubt the lady caught it. She smelled like Nedina Flanders.

[The10Eels]

I confess unless you are running a church or christian book store, I think you should keep your religion out of your business. I don't care if you are religious or not... I find it extremely unprofessional... Like "Covenant Trucking" who has religious bumper stickers on every one of their trailers...

That really bothers me and I'm a Christian, lol. It's really unprofessional to me and kind of awkward.

[AlishaAnew]

OMG!! I sooooo meant meat! heeeeeey it's late

[AbbeysMom]

I confess I don't talk about religion IRL.
I confess I don't know what to believe, but I'm pretty sure of what not to believe.

I confess I sing Allison Krauss's "Down to the River to Pray" to my LO but shut up as soon as DH walks in the room. It's a pretty song. But yeah, not something I should be teaching her.

I confess I should have gone to bed an hour ago.

[The10Eels]

I confess my BFF is in the hospital and it is killing me that I can't be there with her... She has had kidney stones, and a pretty nasty kidney infection for like... over a month...

I confess I want to slap the ER doc she saw in Fairbanks, because they told her she was in kidney failure, and they life-flighted her to Anchorage.... When she got there, the doc said.. "WOW! They really said kidney failure?! Your kidney IS enlarged, but that's because of your infection.... "

So she's sitting there away from her son on IV antibiotics for who knows how much longer....

Yes my brain is very very mushy. I try to keep my responses short because most of time if I go on I start becoming very incoherent.

I agree

How weird!

I agree it is unprofessional and very awkward. I get very weirded out when people say things like that to me. It just sad how much of the population just naturally assumes you believe in god or you are a christian.

My hamsters managed to escape their cage last night (how, I have no idea)... Apparently the survived the FIVE FOOT DROP to the hard floor below. I found one - it scurried out of wherever it was hiding about an hour after looking. The bigger one is still missing though. She'll turn up, I know. I just hate the thought of her chewing up my crap!

[Jenny]

I confess that I've been taking all the religious quizzes on Facebook and I've been scoring way way too high for my liking. One quiz even said I was a bible guru.....

[maggie]

I confess that I've been taking all the religious quizzes on Facebook and I've been scoring way way too high for my liking. One quiz even said I was a bible guru.....

I can't remember who said this, but someone said that the best way to create an atheist is to have someone actually read the bible. Knowledge is power Dr. MLS. Mamma! (Is MLS what you have now? Or is that the wrong acronym?)

I confess that I enjoy getting DH into debates about religion because I know I'll win, even if I don't change his mind. I also sometimess rent documentaries like 'Jesus Camp' and 'Constantine's Sword' and make him watch them with me and I hope that he'll finally give up the ghost one of these days (he is nominally Catholic, but never attends church and disagrees with church doctrine on just about everything. He isn't attached to the miracles or much of the bible being true, but he still calls himself a catholic.). I confess that I call him a pseudo-catholic, which I think is hilarious even though it kind of bugs him. Its true, I am a jerk.

Looking for bigger play tubes, no doubt.

[sarahlynn]
