If you have ever questioned God, religion, or anything of the sort, I would encourage you to check out this group in Jonesboro.

DISCLAIMER: I don't give a damn about your proselytizing or your angry remarks. SO please leave thos where you left your rationality.

In the past few years I have come to realize that the idea of God or any infinite, heavenly being is irrational. Not just the God of the Abrahamic religions, but any God. I started out disliking the Christian God because apparently I'm going to hell for being gay and for not signing over my life to an invisibly entity that demands subservience. So, I became agnostice, which by my defintion, means that one believes there is a Higher Power, but who or what it is is an unkown quantity. However, I have moved on over to atheism because I just find no rational evidence for any sort of higher being. If a god came down and spoke to me or I had a truly religous experience, I would accept that and become religious. Until that happens I stand behind my position.

If you feel like this in anyway, then you are not alone. *you are not alone by michael jackson* Here in Jonesboro there is the Atheist Community of Jonesboro, which meets weekly to discuss a multitude of topics and to provide an environment and social outlet for atheists, agnostics, open-minded people, free thinkers, etc. The people there are willing to think, which is rare in the world and will listen to anything and then logically debate it, which is again rare to find.

So check out the facebook group and come see us.

  1. I just want to give you my definition of agnostic, via Richard Dawkins. I define agnostic as a person who does not either way. He or she will not admit to believing in a higher power or admitting that there is no higher power. It is a straddling of the fence.
