I’m a devout atheist and my wife is Christian though she doesn’t ever practice it or go to church. When our son was born we came to the agreement that I would not steer him away from religion and she wouldn’t push it upon him until he was of a decent age to let him decide for himself. He’s 21 now and I still don’t know what he believes nor is it my business but I can tell you it worked for our family.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Saying Primates have "human like qualities" is precisely the inverse of what's going on. Human's do "primate things" not the other way around. [Behaviour]

23·7 days agoJust remember that you’re standing on a planet that’s evolving
And revolving at nine hundred miles an hour
It’s orbiting at nineteen miles a second, so it’s reckoned
A sun that is the source of all our power
The sun and you and me and all the stars that we can see
Are moving at a million miles a day
In an outer spiral arm at forty thousand miles an hour
Of the galaxy we call the Milky Way
Our galaxy itself contains a hundred billion stars
It’s a hundred thousand light years side to side
It bulges in the middle sixteen thousand light years thick
But out by us, it’s just three thousand light years wide
We’re thirty thousand light years from galactic central point
We go round every two hundred million years
And our galaxy is only one of millions of billions
In this amazing and expanding universe…
Cracker Jacks! God the prizes suck now!

34·15 days agoMany years ago I hung out with an old man that when asked him what he thought about a subject and he had no real input he would answer “I think a sack of flour would make a big biscuit!”
That will stay in my head forever.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•My favorite people in this world are people who dont give me a hard time and leave me alone. So in a way, I really like most people.

We have discussed things about religion and why I don’t believe in it but I’ve never asked him what he’s decided nor do I really care. I never hear him or his friends discuss religion so I’m guessing he’s indifferent to it. It’s not a matter much discussed because it’s not any part of our daily lives.
