Hey, you are not alone. I generally don't talk about my own take on the universe around other people, even at work or around my family. My family knows what I (don't) believe, and I think they are happier just to pretend I never told them I was an atheist 10 years ago.

I feel pretty isolated in my own life, too. My best friend who lives here has a similar viewpoint on life, and I greatly appreciate him and his friendship. But it would be nice to know more people and let them know they are not alone in the bible belt. Thank you for existing.
