Good question. Answer is [b]'not necessarily'. 'Atheists' anywhere simply excercise their prerogative to refuse to acknowledge deity or divine law. Many are moral, respectable and responsible citizens. 'Heathens' connotes groups of people with strange or uncivilized customs (by someone else's ethnocentric standards). Many primitive villagers still wearing loin cloths have been evangelized and believe in Christ.[/b]

well that's the wrong answer. it's a derogatory term meaning anyone who doesn't believe in the christian god. the morality of the non-believers has nothing to do with it.
know that I value the clash if it's honest. So speak up. Answer Blackamp's question.

Hey! People! Let's focus here! The topic is Darvlay's Godless Heathenhood! Now I, for one, think he can't be totally hopeless since it's agreed that he does actually shower. Of course, no one's mentioned the frequency, so that could be an issue. Surely there's more than this to convict him.
and saute's they toenails fer a desserttime treat...

your presence, though realize there are multiple demands on your time.
Originally posted by IchibanovHi, Ichi... sort of nice for a change to listen to a mature guy who seldom if ever complains complain. Trust all is well.
I really need new glasses. I clicked this thread thinking Darv had been outed as an Atheist named Heather. That would have been hot.
Yet again, RHP fails to meet even my most meager expectations...

I'm slightly put out that someone as gentle and righteous as Darvlay would be given this title. I've been a rabid god-hater for years and nobody ever gave me a prize.
Darv gets the extra attention only because I lumped him in with the rest of you without knowing the facts. I've already apologized. Numerous times.
