I feel sorry for people who believe in sky fairies...

...or believe in heaven, reincarnation, "power of prayer," casting spells, astrology, psychics, etc.

I pretend to be diplomatic and respectful to their faces, but behind closed doors or with my fellow skeptics and atheists, I feel deeply sad for their lack of intellect and inability to cope with human mortality.

I am an atheist.

But I wonder how much of your hostility is tied to childhood issues with your parents.

This, I agree with you on. And R2, please explain what you see as hostile.

I swear, people throw words around on this board that just don't connect.

I am 38 and college educated, dear.

I am not some rebellious 19 year old reading his first Richard Dawkins book.

Nice try, though, Freud.

It's one thing to conclude that you're an atheist. That's sensible.

It's another to consantly rail against people who think otherwise. That's hostility. And makes you little different than a fundamentalist.

We definitely believe in astrology since we are ourself an excellent Vedic astrologer!

In our AA meeting the past week there was a very piss-elegant banking fairy from London who announced that she was an atheist. We secretly laughed at her.

She secretly laughs at you.

So there is balance in the world.

Not quite a balance, as the British banker was right.

And anyone who believes in Astrology has no business laughing at anyone.

The irony is that I'm Capricorn. I don't believe in any of it, but astrology dictates my sign is the most likely to be a skeptic.

When is your birthday, MissPP, the day,time, year and city - and we will tell you. The sun sign, which we think you are referencing, means very little.

Yes he was Shirley Q. He's put her to rest due to the knee jerkers who couldn't see that there was nothing racist about her at all.

I will not reveal my birthday, but will reveal I had my whole chart done in my younger, more foolish, "rebel against Daddy" phase.

I'm a "triple cap" (sun, moon, ascendant), but most of my planets are in air/fire "houses."

Whatever the eff all that ridiculous nonsense means, I've forgotten. But apparently "triple caps" are scary.

Oh well.

We assume it was done in the western system, so please give the house names and the degrees of sun, moon, ascendant, saturn, jupiter, venus, mars, mercury, and we can tell you what you have been doing and what lies ahead, also what kind of a woman you really are.

I've told you all I know/remember.
