Holy crap! I thought bed bugs were something invisible, like dust mites. Just googled it and now I feel itchy..
Pepper it's not your fault she's homeless. She did that to herself. It's not even the nasty bed bugs. If I were you, I would never let her bring her stuff in my house and I'd make her burn her clothes before she could come in. Since you exterminated the bugs you shouldn't have let her go. Right now she's out in the streets. Who knows what she has now. It's not safe for you. She could have any disease.

The idea of some man who wants his girlfriend to support him--while offering her zero commitment--so he can "pursue acting" makes me want to grab him by the scruff of the collar and drag him to the nearest military recruiting station!

Pardon me, but I must now have a shot of rum just thinking about it!

that and also the possibility that he's acting nicely just because she's his funder, makes my stomach turn.

We should make this a secular site.

Hate is a big word for someone who is not angry.

Isn't atheism also a belief? What makes your belief superior than others?
One thing I've learned over the years is to stop judging others and start showing what good MY beliefs have to offer. To stop talking this much and start listening. Even if I disagree. And only talk when I'm sure. You're not sure that what you suggest is true. You just believe it to be. That's a belief. And nothing makes it better than other peoples beliefs. If you feel the need to protect people from theists, you can do so by having a constructive conversation and not by making this your first post.
You can choose to be angry at them. But at the end you'll have to accept that it was your decision to listen to them.
You say that you don't hate Christians, but Christianity. So, your problem is not with those you say are trying to brainwash, but with the word of love, acceptance, forgiveness. Don't mean to be rude or anything, but if I were you I'd stop and think for a moment what others are saying to me, accept my responsibility and decide to do what makes me a better person. If for example I was confused and seeked guidance, I wouldn't listen to the angry atheist.

And what makes you any different when trying to silence opinions that are different than yours?

But religion is fiction. To live in a real world believing in fiction is recipe for disaster.

Ehm, how about Easter bunny, or Santa, for example?!

What is a real world according to Cham? Define. Thank you.

A real world is where you don't waste needless time praying for things to happen. Prayer to an imaginary being is a waste of time. A real world is where you accept homosexuality as a natural trait amongst humanity. A religious world is one where the bible tells you it is wrong to be homosexual. In the real world you treat people for schizophrenia. In a religious world you believe in bogus demons. Want me to go on? In a real world you don't live in fear of hell. In a real world you do something because it is rational. In a religious world you do what a book written by uneducated people wrote thousands of years ago. Do I continue? In a real world we know that we came about through evolution. In a religious world we believe in genesis. Ignorance. Do you get the picture?

Ok, let's talk about the real world then. Let's talk about physics, quantum physics, the observer effect. You know where this is going. It's been centuries since we accepted that our universe is not the Newtonian material world we thought it was. Everything is made out of and ruled by energy.
You can say you don't believe in god, and I totally respect that, but you can't be really sure what our world really is. So, let them be. As far as I'm concerned, we don't know the absolute truth so we can't deside for other people what they should, or shouldn't listen to. Everyone should be free to express their beliefs and hopefully we'll make a constructive conversation, so we can make our own opinion having ALL the information, hearing every opinion.
