Older woman here, and do not discount us old farts...my facebook account has been suspended for profanity..

Can you speak louder I CAN'T HEAR THAT WELL?

There's a mix here @Krystal_H look around and don't be so fucking judgemental.

" ... there are a lot of old people on this site ... "

Umm ... how "old" is old, whippersnapper?

Dang ... mah dentures popped raht outen mah mouf when I read this 'n'. Let me tell ya sumpin 'bout us old folks, kiddo. If you hang out with us you might just learn something that will give you a slight advantage over those other inexperienced, unlearned, unwashed heathen youngsters out there. Might even keep you out of trouble or give you some tips on how to get out of it when you have to. There is nothing like talking to those 'been-there-done-thats' when it comes to getting useful information and avoiding learning things the hard way.

you can get more points and get to higher levels faster if you recruit people to the site

Who you calling OLD?

Hey thanks Krystal, I didnt think i was an old person till now LOL

Good because I am not into millennials but You Must Define To Us..."OLD".

Who you callin ‘old?’ Don’t you know that ‘old’s the new middle-aged’ My daughters laugh at facebook … we’re not even ‘friends.’ Snapchat & Instagram are their platforms, I think..

I feel those ‘your age’ are surrounded by like-minded age-related friends. As you’re forced deeper into society you’ll lose track of those friends and likey learn the oppression and intimidation of religion, assuming you were fortunate enough not to have grown up amid it.

For me, I’ve been impressed at the number of youngsters! - and women! Crap, when I first became active with Atheists you’d show up at ‘a meeting’ to 95% men ..most older than I was.. Well, if you’re concerned with a social evolution away from religion - enjoy the company of those having led the charge ~

A lot of funny and appropriate replies to @Krystal_H. Maybe, like most of us, she expected this to be more of a dating site and hasn't figured out how much of what goes on here is about community too? It's also good to have your expectations fucked with a bit. Most our age would not be on a site like this. Most but not all... Still "old people" was kinda fucked up! Don't worry Krystal, I at least forgive you.

Word9ie walt's comment was great, YES I belive that the anveneical conservating want to develop a group wher thet can pass law and beliefs that's aking is so thye canpass laws on how everyelse must live. They're goint to hate and fall apart when cutrual diversity really beginst to
really evolve

Then a person can go on a different site where younger people hang around. Yes most of the older people are on Facebook but more younger people are using Twitter. Most of the current celebrities use Twitter and ones that were famous use Facebook and if a person wants lots of followers on Twitter, always use # hashtags.

Lots of young atheists use Twitter.

I think there are lots of young atheists, agnostics abd skeptics - they just have things to do that are so much more fun than nattering away on here or facebook!

Don't try to steotype age groups it is too simplistic to say if you are in this or that age groupbyour opinions are likely tto be.... what ever. I enjoy learning from old and young alike

Some of you older people should be writing for SNL.

Whoa... no old people here... some just a tad older... kidding.
Thats a curious question, why would you expect atheist/agnostics/skeptics to be youthful?
On occasion, age brings wisdom, or so we think... we’ve been questioning “things” our whole lives, especially the Bible, Jesus, the whole megellah... years later guys like Hitchens, Dawkins, Harris come along, tell us we were right in not buying into the religion crap.
We were 30/40 years calling religion bullshit... so I guess we were in the “head start program” for athiests, you’re just newbies... don’t worry, you’ll catch up... n get old.

I think us millennials struggle to figure out what makes them different. It's only when you know what to look for you come here. My hypothesis anyway. But I've just got a thing for old people so what do i know...

Old age brings the following:

• fading senses. Like - ALL of them.
• bad short term memory
• justified crankiness
• less ego, ironically
• perhaps some wisdom thanks to life experience

Millenials are characterized as self absorbed entitled spoiled shits raised by helicopter parents who wanted their children to be their buddies. I don't know you, so I'm certainly not applying that description to you, but I have a shitload of nieces and nephews that fit it to a tee.

Not exactly sure what age is from my perspective maturity outweigh age by megatons.

I don't think this site is marketing itself to that crowd

This was an entertaining read lol.

I'm not sure millenials can afford access to the internet, what with all their student loans and low pay.

We've had more time to consider things..

Maybe it's because us old atheists and agnostics have lived in a world seemingly dominated by religious people longer and learned how to cope with them quietly. Also, I believe that for most people, becoming an agnostic or atheists is a long process involving both unlearning some things and finding a solid basis for not believing.
