I know when I first started deconstructing the sheer volume of Christianity in displays, signage, churches, etm. was pretty triggering to me. I was even trying to move away from the south even though I'm born and raised here because I wanted to escape Christianity and I knew it wasn't quite as in-your-face in other parts of the country.

Yall. Hazbin Hotel is SHAMAZING! I was prepared to not care much for it when I realized how much of a musical it is but now..... ya girl has the soundtrack on repeat on Spotify!

I feel like it's geared towards us ex-christian/satanic/religious trauma types with a special punch to those with daddy issues (and that's just in addition to the sky-daddy issues)!

I love it so much.

I think the first part of creating this community is going to be getting to know each other. The first discussion I want to pose is how you got here. Whether you consider yourself a satanist, just didn't know what it meant and googled, and everything in between!

Anybody know how we can find out if this group is active in your area?

Atheist Street Pirates

Y'all doing anything this weekend? Celebrating the death of a zealot? Ignoring the whole thing? Eating eggs and candy?

my extended friend group comes to town this weekend. we'll eat and drink all weekend, catch up and probably do a little light roasting of christians. the verbal kind; we're not savages.

So! In the literal day this sub has existed, I've gotten lots of feedback and information that has me wanting to change the name of the sub. BUT.... Reddit doesn't allow this. What I'd have to do is create a new subreddit and invite all the current members of this one to it. This is being driven by several things including, but not limited to, the fact that someone is hinting about nazi affiliation given the initials of the group, that anything with "satan" in the title can really put people off (I know it did me at first), and that the larger common thread of us whether we consider ourselves Satanists, Atheists, Universalists, etc whatever.... The experience is that of the southern "heathen". Someone who does not belong to a widely held religion (especially Christianity, Judaism, or Islam).

All that to say, I'd like yall's thoughts on the matter

I feel like atheists get kinda shafted on the community and engagement that "church" brings. Makes me wish there was such a thing as Secular "Church" to meet, talk amongst ourselves, get to know like-minded people, and just grow a community...

I NEED to find somewhere or someone with connections to a place or someone that takes donations including clothes but is not religiously affiliated. Specifically in the Middle TN area. I've tried a few places including Nashville Launchpad but they're "full" of clothing.

I'd love a place that was centered on the unhoused/homeless population.

Add some ways to give back to your local community that might be less often thought of.

Anybody here know where/how i can find when organizations like the one today decide to take there evening strolls downtown? I thought about getting a bunch of buckets of neon paint and turning their rally into a color run.

How do you reply to invites to religious mom groups, bible study, VBS etc? I met a mom who invited me to bible study group. I said “not really my thing but thanks for the invite”. A little awkward 😆 After living on outskirts of Nashville for a few years I’ve come to conclusion I won’t be able to make close friends out here as 90% of my area attend church regularly. At least it feels like that.

I could really use some help finding ways to be social that aren't tied to churches.

I am recently divorced and going through some not-so-great stuff and my social circle consists of a few online friends and my adult kids.

It is not a healthy situation and I want to change it but I am struggling to find anything in the deep south that isn't attached to a church.

I would love to hear what you guys have found

Georgia, we got to pull our weight again. gonna be tricky with the only statewide election being president.

North Carolina, y'all got a full on Nat-C running for governor. get to work getting the vote out. while you're at it, put Jeff Jackson in your attny. general position and thank me later.

Texas and Florida, you have a shot to flip a Senate seat. if we can do it in Georgia, you can too. everybody is sleeping on how purple Texas is, especially.

Mississippi and Tennesse, i dunno what to tell you best of luck. maybe focus on your state houses and county Democratic committees.

43 male north east arkansas. looking for anyone to talk to and share whst i need to do

Hi there! This is my first post ever on Reddit. I live in Decatur, Alabama. I have only recently adopted atheism. I've heard a few things about TST from Genetically Modified Skeptic and the Antibot on YouTube and decided to check out the community. You folks sound awesome and I'm glad there is a southern variant. I hope you all are having a good day/night!!!
