The State of #Nebraska spent $1.2 million on a web portal to connect children and families with Christian organizations.
On top of that, DHHS is bragging about the "economic impact" of the program. Human service programs shouldn't be measured based on economic benefits to private organizations.
Just an FYI to my fellow #SecularHumanist and #Atheist out there.

Spirituality, for a #SecularHumanist, is derived from empathizing with, and sharing love and compassion, for and with other people.
@IChewPorridge I see no good evidence that "after life" isn't exactly the same as "before life"..... Non existence.
One of many reasons to make your one go at life really count eh 😉
New #introduction
I’m a #GenX #maker of #soundscapes, using electricity to push air molecules around into interesting patterns. I primarily use #eurorack #modular #synthesizers.
My work is informed by 20th century #protopunk, #drone #doom, and other noisy stuff. I like to transpose such forms into 21st century #electronicmusic. I also experiment in other areas, wherever the circuits take me.
I'm a #secularhumanist: each and every human being deserves dignity, respect, and compassion.

When I come across a new version of something that gets attention in a positive way as if it is a new creation, my mind goes somewhere else.
I think about how everyone looks at mortality and how we come to being and then vanish. This phenomenon of constant recreation adds a sense of immortality that many of us can only dream about achieving.

Those of us raised in religious homes were taught that prayer was our most powerful tool. Indeed, prayer can make us feel like we have some agency when disaster strikes - but it mainly serves to calm our own nervous system & make us feel like we are "doing something."
Now that we have rejected magical thinking & embraced reality, our best bet for helping those in distant lands recover from tragedy is through donations to reputable relief agencies. #criticalthinking #SecularHumanist #prayer

'Homosexuality not a crime' https://www.castanet.net/news/World/408105/Homosexuality-not-a-crime but it IS a sin, according to the RC Church! Thankfully, “sin” is just as fictitious as the Bible. Humans hurt each other, sometimes intentionally. Blaming it on “supernatural” forces (aka Satan) provides a cop-out for predators - like the ones in the Vatican. Religion is a relic that is no longer required. #exchristian #atheist #SecularHumanist #lgbtq #criticalthinking #ReligiousTrauma

When my brother-in-law Kit and I were working on a big construction site, he would stand on the steps each morning, scan the sky for rain clouds and recite the workers mantra, saying, ‘send her down Hughie, we’re on by the hour’. My son was at primary school at the time and when a teacher asked the kids what religions they knew about. My son informed her’ We believe in Hughie in our house’. #AotearoaNZ #humour #secularhumanist #injoke #raingods
