A Blue Bath Mat and a Road to Atheism By @Word_Goddess (read the full blog at SecularByNature.com) Intro: I could hear the TV and voices from the other room. Oh great, my roommates had invited a few friends over and they sat in the living room of my first apartment talking, laughing, and eating pizza. There they were, without a care in the world in the front room, as I was kneeled on the floor in the bathroom in prayer. What a scene! This was my first apartment and I was really on my own. Little did I know during this period in my life as I settled in to my new place, new city, found a job, and worked through difficult friendships and relationships, that the confusions and questions I had in my beliefs would begin to take hold of me in this very apartment. I looked down at the light blue bath mat in our bathroom, which I was kneeling down on to avoid the cold floor. There I was, feeling somewhat foolish that I was praying while my roommates and friends laughed and joked just down the hallway. Unbeknownst to them, I was going through a crisis of faith........ #atheist #agnostic #skeptic #secular #godless #goodwithoutgod #SecularNature #freethinker #humanist #WordGoddess #Christianity #formerChristian #formerMorman #LDS #Mormon #Satan #heaven #hell #God #Jesus #bible #indoctrination #sin #pray #faith
