As a college sophomore/junior/transfer/what-in-the-world-am-I from North Carolina, I'm more complex than a small "About Me" section on a website could ever explain, but given the necessity, I'll attempt to give a brief window into my life.
I'm a lover of
+ more bio informationIt never fails to amuse me how otherwise normal, rational people can become so riled up over a simple discussion about the pros and cons of religion that they lose their credibility and begin to bash atheism itself, not the reasons and logic behind it. To condense my thoughts, I believe that atheism is not a choice, but rath...
It seems odd to me that quite possibly one of the single most important things that we as citizens of the United States of America is often decided based on something as fluctuating and transparent as emotion. People see riveting speeches, flowery words, and sharp wit as prime reasons to elect a person as either the next Pre...
Let me begin with a simple sentence: I am an atheist. Within this tiny combination of four words of our language, I have stated much less than many people seem to think; unlike some believe, I do not follow a strict "Atheist's Creed" nor worship the nonexistence of god. Through my own conversations with former friends of min...
I am a sinner, a corrupter, a shameful being, an unpatriotic citizen, a blasphemer - if you ask many people around our nation and world. I am an atheist. I think that perhaps atheism, even more so than many of the world's religions, is dreadfully misunderstood and reviled. Many religious people equate the term of atheism as ...

He is a phenom, hands down, and the only way that teams can truly have a chance at beating this team is to find a way to either ...
Build-A-Lot 2 is an example of the category of games that, to use a cliche, is more than meets the eye. The screenshots for the game seemed a little interesting, but I was really hoping to avoid another Diner Dash rip-off under the cloak of real estate development. After I finished four of the towns though and the trial came...
Much has been made about the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008 and its consequences. Undoubtedly, it contains a lot of things that the average American consumer will find advantageous and helpful, but hidden amidst all of the wordy language and the thickness of the document are a few things that perhaps have not been...
"Pockets" Leftover spaghetti. Again. Every single Tuesday,It's leftover spaghetti. We sit together, But look at her! She says nothing, She complains about nothing, Nothing about the fact that this Spaghetti is still cold. I take another bite. In between the pockets of warm noodles Lie cold icicles, waiting to strike. I glare...
Due in no small part to the atheist renaissance that has taken place recently due to authors such as Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, and Christopher Hitchens, Atheism as a belief has become part of the public eye. While such publicity is helpful in the sense that it provides opportunities for awareness and discussion, it also c...
In today's increasingly visual world, many people - especially teenagers - have forsaken reading or have severely reduced their book consumption. It is not due to a dislike of the stories, but rather a preference for a more appropriate - to them - medium. After all, a movie is on average a two-hour time commitment, while a g...
