Recently I had to explain to my 7 year old son the consequences that being an atheist might have on his being a cub scout.
You see the scouts are inherently discriminatory against atheists. The cub scout promise starts "I promise to do my duty to god..." so if you don't believe in god, how can you possibly keep your scout promise?

My Kids Eat Ridiculously Healthy
Despite the photo, it's true, my kids eat ridiculously healthy, at least over all.
When Eason was born we decided we just wouldn't give him any sweets. While his friends were eating cake at birthday parties, we would just slip a bowl of fruit in front of him and he never noticed.

Eric & Marc Settle Things Once And For All In Costa Rica
My Uncle Marc has long maintained that he beat me in a swimming contest back in the day. Apparently he's been bragging to everyone about it all this time. Well if you know Marc, then you know his memory isn't all that great. So...Marc & I settled things once and for all in the pools of El Country - the Costa Rica Country Club.
