If you’ve been reading AgnosticMom for a long time then you know about my position on morality and ethics. While most religious people think morality comes from their god and some non-believers think it is purely a social construct, others of us (including myself) believe that humans have an innate moral sense which is [...]
There was a request that I ask Dale McGowan in his interview if he believes we have a soul, and if so, where it goes when we die. The question didn’t really fit with the others so I am posting his answer here in a new post.
The concept no longer makes sense in light [...]
My husband sent me this link. I love it. I realize my religious readers may (or may not) find this offensive. But it is the reality as we (most of the AgnosticMom readers) see it.
I remember that once I finally allowed myself to question a few nonsensical religious beliefs, a [...]
It’s less than a month away. Are you ready?
If you don’t know what I’m talking about, check out my article in the Humanist Network News. Normally I only contribute one article a month, but this month I will have a second article in HNN. This week’s article is a general description of [...]

I’d like to respond to Dan, who has been in the midst of a conversation with Dudley on this blog. I am copying Dan’s last comment where he quotes Dudley, which I have put in italics, and then gives his response. If you struggle with the lack of context, you can see the [...]
Wow, has it really been almost three weeks since I last posted? I never thought I would let that much time go by without blogging! There has been a little bit of seizure-drama but all is ultimately well for now! I’ve certainly been enjoying my focus on scrapbooking, I must say. [...]
Whether your kids are artists, natural born scientists, or older video game lovers, I have some ideas for activities that will teach your children about biological adaptations that drive evolution.
If you’re not already a subscriber and haven’t yet read my article in the Humanist Network News, make sure you head over and take [...]
We’re back home and I managed to return sans sunburn and weight-gain. Not having gained weight was the loftier achievement since the resort was all-inclusive. Yes, that’s what I said.
