For those who question where non-believers find their "community" and/or their sociological need to be a part of something, here's the answer (and what a great answer it is) :
Cat Lovers Less Likely To Go To Church, Research Suggests

One of my favorite cats:
@SeaGreenEyez By all means, Henri is meant to be shared.
And catholics beg believers to return annually with BLESS THE ANIMALS mass
My cat Laila has 6 thumbs 3 each opposing 4 claws....she picks up her food not puncturing food like 20 toed cats....Laila has 14 front and 12 in back paws
Evo, my polydactyl 1987-1998 traveled all 48 states with me LIVING PROOF how evolution mutations and dominant traits are passed on to new generations and future species
Never have been a cat person. I'm more of a dog lover.
But just the same. Even being a strong Atheist, I am part of a community of religious people. That 'community' is all about taking care of the homeless, feeding, and sheltering them. Where some may have issues with their 'beliefs' I can't deny, theirs or mine, even coming from a different view, are all about helping others. I volunteer most of my week with them,and IMHO they are good people. regardless of their faith being different than mine. in the end we all care for others.
I know this is off topic from your humor. But I just needed to elaborate a touch on my thing.
Am a big fan of cats. I can see a cat not following any god, except a food god.
@SeaGreenEyez I know but couldn't get the article since I don't accept ads. Still, thought I say something to show I am a cat lover hence an atheist.
@SeaGreenEyez Mostly a desktop PC but sometimes an Apple laptop and I do use ad blocker and it does stop some sites from coming through. Thanks for asking.
@SeaGreenEyez I guess I need to look into this.
I loathe cats. Have been an atheist since age 13. Love this Dave Barry joke:
"If left to their own devices, cats would lead humans directly into a whirling blade."
We don't need cats for that,, we do well enough on our own.
Barry is a jerk not joke
I love and collected all of Dave Barry's books. He's hilarious!
There's nothing wrong with loathing cats. To each his own.
@LiterateHiker some of his humor is classic but my cats will piss on his books
So are There so many who have learn to think and act without mythical BS dogma!!!
My cats understand life and it cycle without needing me or anyone!,,
I don’t have any cats but I respect them because they answer to no one and do as they please!
@MissKathleen I’ve often compared myself to one too! Lol
"Less likely to go to church". Bastet is the wisest. And we can see him.
