    You might not be able to imagine putting a false face up, but organized religion is begging for it and that is evidenced.

    Cut your hair properly and quote verses? I think that you're thinking of Hare Krishna. That's not the norm.

        We had exchange students from Oklahoma here a few years ago. About a third of them seemed to thin the earth was 8000 years old, another third wasn't sure, and the final third was divided between mainstream Christians and people whose eyes pleaded for religious asylum.
        What can you expect from a state where prisoners' rodeo is considered a fun leisure activity...
        Damn, I could have laid several of the girls, especially the 8000 years type, but that religious stupidity turned me off. My unconsciousness probably didn't want to waste my precious genes.

        Back on topic. Yes, I did fake my affiliation. Living in a Catholic country, not quitting the Church officially and putting "Roman Catholic" on a questionnaire is always a good idea.

          Eh, I haven't met a whole lot of atheists on the eastern shore. Probably there's some social pressure involved, but I doubt more than 5% are unbelievers anyway. Those who are, probably GTFO like Boris did.

                I'm a babe in the woods, I guess. "Church hair" is a new one for me.

                    Strangely, google doesn't have proper pics under "church hair". Think Beck, Hannity or Romney... sort of plastic Elvis hair, but smaller.

                      It's hard enough doing it when you believe in it. I can't imagine trying to put out a false face up.
