It's that time of year again, the Lententide season.
What does this mean to an atheist? Some would think freedom from having to abstain from certain delights, or a chance to mock those whose perspective is still bound by something as ancient and frivolous as religion. To me, however, this is a chance to put into words the abstract ideas that define my ideology, one shared by so many others. The main goal of this blog is to give me a writing outlet during the Catholic season of Lent, which I'll spend thinking about what my lack of faith (or faith in the absence of a God, to be better described in future posts) means to me and how my mind works in the absence of religious thought tampering - something religions are oh-so-good at.
In the posts to come, I'll be playing out thoughts or just dabbling around in religion, philosophy, science, or music, so stick around! Ideas become more powerful with an audience, and discussions lead to the evolution of them. Who knows, maybe we'll even have fun.
