Here you are where your answers were posted over 2 years ago..... my reply is Atheists don't need to replace religion in their lives....of course I have never been an adult xian since 1957 when I concluded religions Santa Claus teeth fairies boy bunnies laying candy eggs on dogshit lawns were equal lies and jokes at the expense of children like alleged vaginal virgins birthing alleged baby gawds every midnight December 24-25 in dirty donkey stables everywhere..
Steven Covey is just another cult liar pretending religion will make you successful.... 7 habits are irrelevant to scientific or solutions oriented career paths
.....Humanists spin many words about Atheism into their version of "philosophy" but I recommend you study ethics of your chosen profession and treat your neighbors and family as you want to be treated.....glad you left the xian cult/s....the weaker they get the closer to world peace this planet gets

read Sapiens and Homo Deus

What we read and watch comes up all the time in general conversation.

We have groups that put up the latest podcasts - some that might mentions books - others about YouTube Videos. If you roam around the site a bit you'll find a lot here.

Just search under the "Group" button up top. It helps to level up a bit too. So keep posting.

These groups might be a flavor of what you are looking for. But be sure to join a few for fun too.

"American Humanists Association"

"Freedom from Religion Foundation"

And this is the largest Atheist group in the US - [atheists.org] They have conventions etc..

what gives life order..the right drug?

Hello new person welcome to this site. It may not be so easy for you to find that same kind of community that you had while being religious but don't despair there will be like minded people there just a bit more difficult to find them. Meanwhile you have us.

What gives my life order: Hard work, caring, curiosity, responsibility, valuing education, kindness, humanity, and continually asking again and again what is goodness, truth, beauty, and wisdom because those are the only conversations worth having (the last half of that was paraphrased from Hitchens, and he paraphrased them from the ancient Greeks).

I'd be careful of this lot. I think you should try a more welcoming bunch, like Dixie Atheists, or Centre for Inquiry or something. These guys are a bunch of pricks.

Welcome to the asylum. Enjoy your stay.

Hello and welcome to the forum!

I just read a lot. That got me out of religion and keeps me interested.
