WOTM: Can Atheists Be Grateful?
Some people say the stupidest things. It almost seems to be their job. Did you know that people like me (us?) cannot be grateful? Yep. That's what they tell me. It's because we don't have anyone to be grateful TO — like a god or God. And all this time I've been feeling this sense of gratitude which was apparently just... indigestion(?). Maybe it was the burning in my bosom that I've been ignoring. Well, at least I can still be grapeful. Which reminds me, I'm almost out of grapes. I'll see you at the Smart & Final!
Thanks again, by beautiful patrons, for all your continued support. I'm particularly happy with this months offerings. Hopefully, you'll agree. More on the way. B

On your game. Keep it up.
Wait! I have game?!!! I didn't even know. Awesome!!!!
Well, I am a grateful for the two orgasms this video gave me. Bri-Bri, may I create a gif of you getting whipped? That'll help next time I need some hot-n-bother. Like if I ever get to go to the DMV again!... Rawr.
Whatever blows your skirt up. I’m always happy and willing to help.
If Yahweh was as big an asssss-teroid... hole as has been said, then calling him such would probably make him strike you down. Which he almost certainly would. If he had the power. On the other hand, if he is actually a really great guy--none of us have anything to worry about. Which makes all the hand wringing about sin kind of moot.
There used to be just three professions: the law, medicine, and the pulpit. This was because a certain intellectual acumen and education was needed ... and there were many opportunities for graft. Unfortunately, there has been a great Brain Drain and we have been left by this most recent class of theologians who are not only people who, as you note, cannot think, but are woefully ignorant besides. I hope we do not spend all of our time being jerked around by these idiots, firing off missives of idiocy to every side.
That's a really interesting point about the three professions. I hadn't really though of it. Very insightful. Two of the three actually deserve our respect! Ha!!!
I'm grateful that I did actually see Season 2 of Mr. Deity. And that I'm able to get back to sleep at night (thanks, Sleep with Me podcast). And that I've had Mr. Deity to help me maintain my sanity through years of being outnumbered by my evangelical in-laws. Clearly, atheists can be grateful! Thank you, Brian!
So you're the one? I new someone had to see it. And thank YOU!!!
Rest ass'ured: I'm grateful to you for all the enlightenment and clever humor you've shared with us through the years.
This is so funny. I ad-lib’d that bit because I thought it would be funny and self-deprecating. Then, when I was editing, I realized it was going to get me nice comments like this. Woohoo!!! Smarter than I think sometimes. And thanks so much!!! 😉
Triangle Kush and Benadryl. 75 y/old.
Just so you know, I'm grateful to/for you on the order of 4 or 5 times each month. Now if I could only sleep all the way through the night without getting up, I'd be grateful for that as well. Old age, not grateful, just better than the alternative.
Right?!!! What is that about? My dogs (12 and 10) can still go all night. Why can't I? My program is six to eight good hits of Gorilla Glue (a nice indica leaning hybrid), and a Benadryl. The weed calms my hyperactive mind. And then the Benadryl helps me get back to sleep when I wake up needing to make water. Hope that helps.
