I've heard many so called atheists refer to the "soul" as if it actually existed. My question is: If you believe humans have a soul are you really an atheist? Continue

I support FFRF by "Amazon Smile Shopping" where I chose to sent a part of the profit to FFRF.
FFRF has just sent out a request for donations to fight Mike Pence's agenda regarding "Christian Nation", abortion, and human rights (lgbt) among other far-right issues. I don't know what good it will do, but somebody has to step up and oppose his radical philosophy.
And, as a followup to my previous post, the FFRF's display has been stolen, probably by "good Christians".
The FFRF made the local (Indianapolis) news last night. They've won the "right" to add their "Reason for the Season" display on the Franklin town court house lawn. Of course, those people interviewed were vehemently outraged.
When we travel, and use Motel 6, I flash that sample card the AARPers always send me, and they knock something like ten bucks off the bill. If I don't have one on me, I just say AARP discount and act like I'm trying to find my card. They always just give me the discount anyway.
I don't know what AARP membership actually costs and I have no intention of finding out.
Yes, I saw this. Thanks for calling our attention to her death.
ANNE NICOL GAYLOR, first president of FFRF and woen's rights activist, died last night at age 88.

I don't know how AARP stays in business. Every year since I was fifty, they've sent me a plastic membership card with my name on it and a letter saying: "This could be your real card and you could get the following AARP discounts..."
Every year, I put that card in my wallet and show it at any place with a AARP discount sign. Apparently no one knows what a real card looks like because I've never had a problem getting any discount offered. Like I said, "I don't know how..."
AARP's magazine is Readers Digest with Alzheimer's. (Gag me!)
The organization as a whole has done some good lobbying work as far as insurance and retirement issues go, but that's ALL they've done, and it's not enough.
It's a pity that we even need lobbyists for the elderly....and that the extremists don't get it, or don't care.
