I am getting my EdM from SUNY with emphasis in Science and the Public. This is a fledling program linked closely with CFI (Center for Inquiry) and offered totally on-line. I enjoy reading Sam Harris, Dawkins, Kurtz, among others. I find them all elucidating, and reassuring. I thought I was alone in this town with regard to my beliefs. I am also the mother of two boys. My in-laws are VERY religious. Therein lies the conundrum. :-) I have pitched to Brain Child, and Literary Mama. I am relieved to know you are out there. Please, email me, perhaps coffee at some point. I live in Mesa. I am getting my EdM from SUNY with emphasis in Science and the Public.

I love the new book! It is very enjoyable, even for a non-parent such as me. I ordered in another copy for the shelf at work. Oh, and I just discovered your scrapbooking blog. Love it! Noell!

I hope you know how important your openness is. I just found you two days ago by going link to link to link starting at Richard Dawkins' site (I just started reading "The God Delusion"). Since then I've been devouring the posts from your archives. I only wish I could buy you a cup of coffee and talk to you for awhile. My background is similar to yours--except that I was brought up in the Assembly of God church. My parents are in ministry and I spent time at seminary. I really related to your accounts of spending hours in study and prayer. So to find myself an agnostic on her way to being an atheist is quiet a surprise to me. I mention all of this to explain why I am so happy to have found your website and how appreciative I am of your candor. And I'd love to hear more on how you balance your family's beliefs with your own as your raise your children. My family has no idea where I stand because I know full well the pain it would cause them. I'm also not ready to be "re-saved" every time I see them. They will do everything they can to "save" my daughter in years to come (she's only 9 months old now) and I just don't know how to deal with it all. The posts you've had on this (that I've so far found) have been most helpful. Enough adoration! A million thanks. I just can’t thank you enough for your blog, your writing, your life work.
