The pocket lesbian walks home.

[lisacharly]

I'm back from the diversity conference. I doubt I'm the same person since when I left. Maybe I'm just the same person having been slapped in the face by several Bettering Concepts (sensitivity, self-reflection, acceptance, negotiation, things like that). But I didn't realize that I walked in there with so many biases and walked back out so much

*hugs* Sounds like an amazing conference.

I know that I've actually had more problems from people about my atheism than my lesbianism here. I've had several people offer to give me Bibles, like that would change my opinion any. Yeah, I'd probably read the Bible, but... hey, it's a neat story. I like fiction and myths. *laughs*

I personally cannot take any religious text as anything more than fiction. It's just the way I am. Even the Satanic Bible is just a guide of philosophical suggestions rather than law.

*hugs*

Yeah. Heh. *Smooch* I like defining my own moral code based on my thoughts, observations, and preferences rather than on what a big dude in the sky or whatever says we should do. *rolls eyes*

I just can't accept getting my morality from something I don't know exists. Sista's just doin' it fo' herself, here. *Satan horns!*

So... you had a good time then? That's good or bad depending on your answer. :)

I beg to differ on everyone being human, however. I know several 'people' who deserve no less than to be called monsters or animals.

I think you missed the point of my post.

She does that a lot... should I poke her for you?

Now hopefully I don't get yelled at for looking around Liz's f-list again. :)
