I\u2019ve been blogging here for nine months now. I\u2019ve laughed, I\u2019ve cried, I\u2019ve grown a lot. I\u2019ve made new friends and thought and learned and become a stronger person. I\u2019ve worked through a lot and analyzed just about everything. And now, I\u2019m ready for a change. Or more specifically, a move. <\/span><\/p>\n


\n<\/span><\/div>\n
I have, you see, been invited to join the FreeThought Blogs<\/a> network. FreeThought Blogs brings together a group of individual blogs under one umbrella, which allows readers to easily move from one to another following their interests. As you might guess, this blogging network is united by \u201cfree thinking\u201d \u2013 in other words, while they write about everything from science to politics to feminism, all of the bloggers on FreeThought Blogs are atheists of some sort or another. <\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
Trust me when I say that this is an exciting opportunity. For one thing, FreeThought Blogs is home to many of my favorite blogs, including Pharyngula, Greta Christina, and Blag Hag. For another thing, FreeThought Blogs will likely give my writing greater exposure. <\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
But never fear, Love, Joy, Feminism is not changing. <\/strong><\/span>My content will be the same. \u00a0My blogging style will be the same. My comments policy will be the same. The range of topics I cover will be the same. It has always been my goal on this blog to approach issues with respect and understanding, and that goal won\u2019t change. <\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
I am going to clean this site up a bit and keep it here as a reference, especially dealing with issues regarding Christian Patriarchy and Quiverfull. <\/span>Most of my past posts and archives will also transfer over to the new site. <\/span>In the future, I may post articles I write that deal directly with\u00a0Christian Patriarchy or Quiverfull here to augment this site\u2019s purpose as a reference tool (if I do this I will either also post it on my FreeThoughts Blogs site, or at least post a link, so you don\u2019t have to worry about following more than one site). <\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
It is my hope that my regular readers will follow me to the new site. It is my hope that my religious readers won\u2019t be put off by my move to an atheist blog network. Like I said, my comments policy won\u2019t change. My attempt to address issues with understanding and\u00a0graciousness\u00a0won\u2019t change. And finally, it is my hope that my new site will be as enjoyable and personable as so many of you have told me this site has been. <\/span><\/div>\n

\n<\/span><\/div>\n
Here is the link to my new site: <\/span>\u00a0\n
