An who’s that ex-Mormon woman who lives in France? I loved her blog.

That was me! And it shouldn’t be loved past tense — you should love it still! Even though I moved to Switzerland.

I used to have more Christian commenters back when I actually wrote about religion, I get one every now and then these days. Subscribers? Probably zero. Again, I don’t write about religion (or atheism/non-theism) very much any more because I’ve found other areas more fascinating. Like all the crap I’ve been writing about what’s going on in Florida and Boca Raton, environmentalism-wise. I still write about religion here and there but not much.

Hi, Teen Atheist. You’re on my blogroll. Thx.

The Facebook Atheist, Agnostic and Non-Religious group is sometimes good. It’s uneven. And wear your nomex underwear. And that’s from the regulars. The LJ atheist and skeptic blogs are kinda sleepy. I’ve given up RupertSpace for Lent.

I just read Ray Comfort’s blog, thanks to you, and what to my bleeding eyeballs should appear?

The truth is that the Christian is like a doctor, who is working with a patient who has psychological problems. He has been well-trained to recognize that his client will suffer from delusional paranoia

Well-trained?

I’ve got a co-blogger (alas, inactive now) who’s an observant orthodox Jew. I love his articles, which are mostly secular, but he may not like mine so much. After you’ve been friends for so long, you learn to put up with each other. I also had a young LDS woman who discussed things regularly.

An who’s that ex-Mormon woman who lives in France? I loved her blog.

Thank all you folks for suggesting blogs. Some are on my blogroll now, thanks to you.

By and large, I also read mostly posts with views I agree with.

However, I do also read “God’s Politics” (Jim Wallis and the Sojourners folks) “Threads from Henry’s Web” (Henry Neufeld’s blog) and “Monkey Trials” (Scott Hatfield).

These are the exceptions that prove the rule. They are all Christian blogs, but presenting a liberal style view I find congenial.

I don’t read many Christian blogs (just the two in my sidebar, one of which is a personal friend who hardly ever posts about religion). But I read the Mormon blogs (the Bloggernacle) religiously.

I subscribe to about twenty blogs by/for believing Mormons, and I comment. I also know that there are a number of believing Mormons who read my blog (and comment occasionally), but obviously I don’t know precisely how many.

efrique said:

How would I know if I have Xian readers unless they comment?

I suspect I have no subscribers who are Christian.

You just got one! I don’t understand half of what you’re talking about (Riemann Hypothesis??) but hell, it’s still interesting. And you have promised a post on SG-1 as well.

I’m a Christian and this is probably the only “atheist” blog I read. I read a lot of homechooling blogs by atheists parents however. A few by Christian parents as well but mostly atheist.

When it comes to forums I also hit the atheist ones. I’m a long time poster at IIDB and recently joined the Richard Dawkins forum.
