The college is private and is affiliated with Catholicism. It is rather liberal in regards to religion and does not require students to be religious. Teaches evolution, rejects literal creationism, and is a well-respected institution.

I am not one of those atheists that goes around trashing people’s religion and tries to start fights with religious people.
I keep my religion to myself and I would only tell somebody if they asked me.
Oh, I don’t tell me to move to Austin or some other liberal place like that, part of the reason that I want to leave Minnesota is because I’m surrounded by liberal democrats.
I like hunting, fishing, ATVing, trucks, and warm weather.
So, my only real abnormality I suppose would be that I don’t affiliate with any religion. Would I be accepted by the Texans as long as I don’t trash their beliefs?
NOTE: Please only respond if you live in Texas (I don’t care if you are a liberal, conservative, moderate, Republican, Democrat, or Independent). I would prefer not to have a bunch of people in Massachusetts making assumptions based on what they saw on MSNBC answering this.

So god works through people right? And people have free will right? So did god make everyone with a vision in mind of the choices they were going to make in life?
I have a choice tomorrow.
I can:
A.) Rob a bank
B.) Go to school.
Regardless of the two choices I can only live one reality. Now even though it’s MY choice, how do I know it’s really MY choice? How do I wasn’t MEANT to make a set of choices from the instant god created me?
So are how can I be sure that predestination isn’t real. (NOT SAYING PREDESTINATION AND THE BIBLE ARE AFFILIATED.)
I just find this interesting.
Even if you don’t believe in god, this is still a good thing to consider.
Despite what we think, are we bound to a certain fate regardless of what we think?
And by saying that god didn’t make us knowing what we’d do with our free will, then does that mean god can’t see the future? Then how would he know what people he would work through to make this world a better place? (Atheists Ignore this paragraph.)

Alright, so the title is just a joke. It is true and I do have a serious and problem and want you to answer me but I thought maybe it would filter out the silly little creationists and the atheists.
Just in case you didn’t know, I’m an atheist. Just to make it clear.
I’m rather new to atheism. I used to believe in God but I decided it was obsolete and didn’t make sense. Now, it seems that my mother cries all the time about the fact that I’m apparently “going to hell.” My friends don’t like the idea of it and I have no atheist friends that I can relate with. I live in North Carolina and there is a very big Christian influence and I have to deal with my best friend telling me all the time,”You know being an atheist doesn’t make sense right? I mean, it is just stupid. You just want to do what you want to do and not want to be wrong.” He told me that over the phone today while my mother screamed at me and told me simultaneously,”You are going to hell and you know that the Bible is the only truth and the only way. I don’t care what you say. You will be a Christian again and believe the RIGHT way.”
I was so embarrassed and didn’t know how to handle it so I said,”Just because you believe what you’re told from some dusty book and the idea of hell was probably borrowed from other cultures considering others having the same idea and you just can’t face the fact of dying and no after-life.” She said to that,”No, they borrowed the idea from us.” I told her,”Mama, you are a woman of European descent and you aren’t even affiliated with the ancient Jewish people other than copying their beliefs in a remote way. They didn’t borrow nothing from you.”
I hear stuff like this daily. How do I stop having to hear how I am going to die in hell and that Jesus loves me all at the same time? I cannot stand having to hear it. What do I do? My mother made me go to church last Sunday and it is just driving me crazy. Please, I need advice. Thanks for your time.

Do they think Atheists and Agnostics can’t tell the difference between right and wrong because they’re not affiliated with any religious organisation?
