We need to stand up and be counted.

    I used to be quiet about it, but now I’m pretty open about it. Joined The Satanic Temple and wear my shirt lots of places out and about and surprised when so many folks react positively to it. I like it.

    Actually dated a girl in High School that was VERY devout Christian, though she wanted to do more things than I did, and she was constantly surprised that I was as moral as I was. She’d say I have such a strong belief in right and wrong, more than her even. And she asked how I even know what right and wrong was without the Bible. I was honestly stupified by the question. And I told her, because I understand that hurting people is hurting people and I don’t need a book to tell me that.

    I feel like we’ve also gotten confused on legality and morallity. I’ve already taught my 6 year old, though I’m sure he doesn’t fully understand, that not everything that is right is legal and nothing everything that is legal is right.
