I used to be an atheist. I also used to suffer from insomnia. And I am dyslexic. I would lie awake at night, and deny the existence of Dog. π

Now what? Deny the existence of what dog? You mean God, atheist; one who disbelieves or denies the existence of God

Post a link to it here, with a brief explanation.
Take your time and have a think, no-one is interested in clicking through more than one link per user.
Will you choose a thread that moved you, one that you learnt something from, or one that thrilled you with its DRAMA?

I'm cheap, I choose DRAMA - Thread 19702 from page 4 onwards ...[text shortened]... hen clan rivalry meant something!
In this thead: Blobby admits to cheating; the DRAMA unfolds.

Do you know what "dyslexic" means? And have you ever heard about something called "joke" where people say something just because it's funny, not because it is the truth or something they believe? It's a weird concept, I know.
The National Institutes of Health estimates that about 15% of the United States population is affected by learning disabilities, mostly with problems in language and reading. The condition appears in all ages, races, and income levels. Dyslexia is not a disease, but describes rather a different kind of mind that learns in a different way from other people. Many people with the condition are gifted and very productive; dyslexia is not at all linked to low intelligence. In fact, intelligence has nothing to do with dyslexia.
Dyslexic children seem to have trouble learning early reading skills, problems hearing individual sounds in words, analyzing whole words in parts, and blending sounds into words. Letters such as "d" and "b" may be confused.
When a person is dyslexic, there is often an unexpected difference between achievement and aptitude. However, each person with dyslexia has different strengths and weaknesses, although many have unusual talents in art, athletics, architecture, graphics, drama, music, or engineering. These special talents are often in areas that require the ability to integrate sight, spatial skills, and coordination.
Often, a person with dyslexia has a problem translating language into thought (such as in listening or reading), or translating thought into language (such as in writing or speaking).
Common characteristics include problems with:
identifying single words
understanding sounds in words, sound order, or rhymes
spelling
transposing letters in words
handwriting
reading comprehension
delayed spoken language
confusion with directions, or right/left handedness
confusion with opposites (up/down, early/late, and so on)

Synonyms:

A joke is something said or done for the sake of exciting laughter; it may be raillery, a witty remark, or a prank or trick: to tell a joke. Jest, today a more formal word, nearly always refers to joking language and is more suggestive of scoffing or ridicule than is joke: to speak in jest.
