Atheist Camp

Well, not now. Several years ago I would so much have enjoyed the reprieve that Atheist Camp would have afforded me from the religious bullying I have had to deal with at camp.

As you my know my mum is practicing Catholic, and though we're a bit short on Catholic summer camps there is no shortage of religious summer camps, and these were the camp of my experience. What I've gotten from this it seems a fair bet that most of those kids were born again on the if-at-first-you-don't-succeed theory. One would have to be an ox to not be able to count the number of normal kids on one hand. What isn't known about fretful Rod and Todd Flanders is that give the power they'll have Bart, Lisa and Maggie burnt at the stake before the day is out.

It is not beyond reason that my mum sent me to the wackiest Christian camps she could find to make Catholicism look good to me. At neither of the two camps I went to was there any talk of Jesus not being in that very room, yet alone not existing.I don't know about Episcopalians, but Pentecostals are nuts.With the adults and older kids around it was just kind of lame. But get off into the woods for a few hours of kid time and Lord of the Flies* comes to mind. And without a doubt I was Piggy. Piggy without the sense to back down. Better that being Simon, I suppose. *Not only did I type in "Rings" instead of "Flies", when I came back to edit that error I realized when I proof read "Lord of the Rings" prior to posting I corrected that to "The Lord of the Rings". Funny the way the mind works.Edited by lyx2no, : Lord of the Flies

Indeed I did. I'll edit. Thanks.
