    I was looking around the sections trying to find an atheist community or forum in dumaguete but found none. So can someone help me find one instead. Much obliged.

    WOW! To the Point!!

    :eek: Simouny, I get a serious gut feeling you are not going to get much responce to this! I know that are one or two Members that make some rumblings on this Subject. Your Question is like asking Where you can find Ladies of the Night, Certain other banned Sect Meetings, Sex parlours! We may all know where to find them but hardly going to Admit it :wink: on this forum. Maybe You could have worded it a little less obvious, Those that know, would have come forward. Even maybe helped you form one. Can't see why but we are all entitiled to our beliefs, or in this case non-belief.

    thanks for you reply JP.:smile:

    You may have a point there but I did so on the premise that it would stir up something from the atheists in dumaguete to seek out others so we could bond some time. :D

    It's been a long time coming for non-believers to actually start discussing they're non-belief in public and I think simple thread like this help to do just that. :cool:

    Why is it that when Bible study groups get together no one really bothers to feel threatened but when atheists try to come out suddenly the atmosphere churns smoke:mad:. It may be that there is this pervasive special consideration for religious/fundamentalist faiths that just gives them excuse to dictate other people's belief system. :confused:

    I don't know, I just hope there are people in this tiny town that hold the same thoughts.

    Not Sure

    As I said, we are all entitled to our beliefs, This is not an area I would want to get involved with, I just hope that others see it as, you feel it. There can be some Harsh tongues on DI and I hope it does not turn into one of those Slanging matches. :confused: I can't wish you Luck But I will wish you well.:wink:

    Atheism is a belief system in and of itself.

    It's so much easier to be a non-theist.

    so far no slanderings yet. I wouldn't want it to be so either. Just focus on whoever can inform me on any groups which is not so common in this conservative country. Although that is the case I do think guys in DI are pretty open minded. :smile:

    I promise I won't knowingly address any ridicule from theists on this thread. If need be we can always make other threads.

    I've decide so far that it does not matter if i believe in God or not but it matters if God believes in me or not...and the problems aren't in that people believe in god or not but in that they decide what to believe about God or what not to believe about God.....Please dont take this to imply that i do believe in God or that I do not believe in God....:smile:
