VIRB

"Sure, I believe in God but I don't believe there are a plethora of different gods, just the one God. I've always thought Jesus was probably a very cool dude who had some fantastic ideas and was a very peace, love & berries type of person &, of course, I love that. Pretty much starting at about 12 years old I've tried a variety of churches but I discovered that I'm, basically, a talk to God in the shower, or while I'm eating French Toast, or while I'm listening to Danzig type of person. We have some pretty awesome discussions which typically boil down to 'Misty, you are horribly stubborn, don't listen, & are ridiculously opinionated' but I think we all knew that to going into it." I streamed this verbally while we all sipped our coffees. There was about 3 minutes of silence while we all pondered our own existence and then "C" very quietly said, "Wow, I really had you pegged wrong." I said, "You had who pegged wrong?" "You," she said. "Really? How so?" I couldn't for the life of me figure out what she would say next. "I thought you were an Atheist." She said this shyly as though she thought she might be on the way to hurting my feelings. I smiled and said, "Why did you think I was an Atheist?" "Because you wear black every day."

Peace, Love & Secularism!
