“Overall, it would appear that Alaska (no kidding) is the most non-religious”

Have you ever been to Alaska? It’s PROOF that there is no benevolent being watching over us. :)

Correction: To the meaning of First is Last and Last is First. It means that Birth is Last and Birth is First. Sorry for the error. God talks in symbols and opposites at times, so it takes time to figure out what he is saying. Some of his messages are clearer than others, plus they have multiple meanings.

I have no idea which state is the most secular, but if you find out, let me know. I have lived in South Carolina my entire life and have been a secularist for about 8 years now. This is quite possible one of the most religious and conservative states. Our Lt. Governor has been pushing for license plates that say “I believe” and have a cross on them. The only other atheist, agnostic, or secularist I know is my husband. It sucks. However, nothing is going to change about this if no atheist/secularist ever move here so I am torn about leaving.

In 2007 God had this to say:
We each die in succession, then we are born on the same day.

God also gives proof that this message is from him. The proof is in the story of 3 famous people, Mike Douglas, Merv Griffin and Nancy Reagan. Mike dies on his birthday. Merv dies the day after. Merv and Nancy are born on the same day.

So, your thinking, “Is that Proof?” Remember the Bible gives you “No Proof”. You are told this is the Word of God. You have to have faith. God had Volumns to say and he gives some type of proof with each message.

In the Spring of 2006 God sent a message. The message is about the meaning of First is Last and Last is First. The message is this:
In the morning I go to Heaven. In the afternoon I live my life. In the evening I die, death.

What does this mean? It means that Birth is Last and Last is Birth. God also gives an example so that you can understand this better. Example: Mike Douglas died on his birthday. (Note: Mike Douglas and Michael Douglas are two different people.)

Church is the place where lies are told in the name of God. God has returned and he is not happy with this. He is going to tear down the Church and rebuild it in his own words. He is not picking on any one Church or any one Religion. You have all been deceived by False prophets. Every nation and every religion have been deceived. All of you should listen more closely to the Atheists they have found where lies are. Liars always get caught.

I’ll second the Colorado suggestion, but Boulder may not be the best option. While it is very liberal and not very religious at all, the people there, I’ve found are either the chill type that I think you’re looking for, or they’re very in your face about everything. Maybe it’s just me, but I get the feeling every time I’m there that someone near me would want to stab my eyes out if they knew what I believed (not referencing atheism here). Now a place more like a suburb of Denver would be a better choice to me. First, you’re near more tech job opportunities as Denver is much bigger and has a much bigger tech industry. Secondly, in some of the suburbs, the people are very laid-back and even the religious ones will sit down and smoke a bowl with you :). Now I personally prefer Fort Collins as it is a veeeeeeery relaxed place and being a college town, it is fairly liberal and has a good number of atheists/agnostics. However, I don’t believe the tech job opportunities are very good within the city and the commute to Denver would be terrible.

the facts proving the Iraq War is fully justifed and a necessary part of the War On Terror

The conflict in Iraq was about WMD’s that did not exist. What it is about today is a mystery. No one in a position of authority is willing to take a position on that. If I am wrong, please post a link … I’d love to know why we continue to occupation (what is our goal, and what is the strategy to reach that goal).

While I have lived in ten states, I really can not answer your question with a “I KNOW for SURE” answer.

I would say while California may not be the most NON religious state, it is certainly among those who are.
In my very knowledgable and experienced view (Which happens with age, 73, many more varied experiences than most even come close to having.) The problem with the San Fransisco area is most poeple who move there seem to lose the ability to know what they hell a fact is or to think logically.
I find the only difference between the Clueless Clods of the Loony Left (many of whom live in SF) who deny the facts proving the Iraq War is fully justifed and a necessary part of the War On Terror AND the Programmed Religious Robots of the Right who deny Evolution is a Proven Fact and Homosexuals are BORN, IS THE SUBJECT matter.

Members of both groups refuse to Learn and/or DENY any facts which PROVE them WRONG. Neither group would pass simple quizes and neither grrop are open to learning.

Thanks for your time and Good Luck on Your Future.

Last time I checked Oregon (where I live) and Washington had the lowest percentages of regular churchgoers in the country. Which really makes me wonder what it must be like living in the Bible Belt because it still seems like there’s WAY too many of them….
