Thank goodness! I will shoehorn anywhere that I can. “Religion poisons everything“– – Christopher Hitchens. (I wonder what you would have said, if there would’ve been three posts about a church meet up group)

The same thing I would have said about, "there's an atheist meetup," nothing.

But if someone said to stay away from atheism meetups or Dharma talks or vegan book clubs, I would have found that off-putting and weird.

Believe me or don't believe me. I can't tell you what to think, I'm not Christopher Hitchens.

I believe you, because I also feel the same. Stay away from churches with an exclamation point seems overly dramatic.
