Everyone else can ignore this post, but I am posting this on the site instead of sending out a mass email in case anyone signs up in the future and has this problem. I am having problems with the unsubscribe button on the right side. If you no longer wish to receive email notifications, just [...]

Steve has started a new blog! Apparently, blogging is infectious. He is a lawyer, so it’s way more boring than mine. Also, he’s not nearly as cute and funny as I am. (Just kidding!) But he is an excellent writer! Way better than I am, so if you’re looking for good writing as opposed to [...]

Blech, I’ve been off ADD meds for about a year. I am really feeling it lately, and I can see it in my posts. It’s gotten a lot worse since moving into a more chaotic environment with more people and more distractions. Hopefully, I will be back on meds and back in a more stable [...]

From PostSecret: I think people could reasonably assume I sent this in except mine’s not really a secret anymore. Exploring fantasies and expanding your horizons together as a couple=cool. Doing something because you’ve been forced, pressured, manipulated, or out of a warped idea of submission or needing to please a partner=not cool. Why does that [...]

“Forgive and forget!” you hear all the time. As a Christian, it’s easy: you just pray it away! Except it’s not so easy. It’s not easy for a non-Christian, either. You hear how important it is for your mental health, but how do you do it? The first thing to know what forgiveness is not. [...]

The ayes have it! When I asked if anyone would be interested in starting a forum with the interests of women without religion in mind, I created a poll. I decided if I could get five people interested after a week of polling, I would start it. I got 18 yeses in under 24 hours, [...]

I received an email today from a woman who asked me about resources for fellow nonreligious women out there. And I drew a blank. I know of some atheist groups and some atheist Mom groups, but women’s issues from a non-Christian point of view? I don’t really know of any. So, I thought, why don’t [...]

Merry Christmas to me! I am changing servers so I can do all kinds of neat things. However, there may be some kinks over the next few days as everything gets set up. If you have any problems, email me at redheadedskeptic@gmail.com With the new site comes new improvements! You can now preview your comments [...]

I added a new page at the top of the blog called My Story. It lists the posts I have written about my childhood, time in ministry, and exit out of the church in chronological order. It gives it a little more cohesion. If you have any questions, feel free to ask! Writing it, I [...]

Christian Right blogs and newsletters have capitalized on the plight of Carolyn Savage, a woman who was accidentally impregnated with the wrong embryo at an Ohio fertility clinic. She claims she never considered abortion or fighting for custody because the Savages are strictly pro-life. It was this that grabbed the attention of blogs and Christian [...]
