I can see that many peoples have changed due to the shows. As for me, i haven't changed because i always been an atheist. I have no clue what's the ''feeling'' to be a theist. Maybe i should Stare into the sun until i get blind.

You're just lucky to have been raised in Canada instead of the bible belt. I'm sure you would find it very strange to visit a place like Missouri or Georgia. Church on every corner, christian fish on every car. I live less than a mile from This Monstrosity . They call it the Steeple of light. I wonder if they think it's going to reach god floating out there in the vacuum of space somewhere. Ugh.

Just wanted to add my voice to the chorus. Reggie, you have been and continue to be an inspiration. One of the few people in the world with the courage and conviction to not just talk but DO.

You know that you have a loyal group of friends here and we will continue to support your excellent efforts however you choose to present them.

All strength to you.

BW

Only ancient ladies go to church here.

As an internet strategist, previous theist, and now divorced dude I find this thread filled with one thing that all theists, atheists, married people, single, male and female people have in common: Humanity.

I came to this site years ago under who knows what name (I have over 30,000 domains and have no idea what email I used to register under) to find a place to vent and play and decide. I had an Masters in Divinity and was a few years out of the speaking circuit with a few years of bibilical translation under my belt. I was in business at that point and learning to let go of g-d. Damn, it was tough.

I am a southern guy that plays in the the Northeast in biz. I was meeting people that gave me a safe place to find my edge and to vocalize my issues. I wrote and I spoke in a different form after finding that safe place.

Infidelguy.com added an even better spot to play. I posted little but read lots. Then she had enough.

Oh, I jumped. She that was the wife but no longer. Anyway, this is not my story or song just saying that us humans change as has been said. We leave and go and bond and break and it all kinda sucks sometimes.

Who was it on this board that talked about attachment and pain and buddhism? I forget. Good dude he was. Damn straight right too.

Back to the point (is there one?)...I do not think I gave back to this site nor to reggie to the level that the site and reggie gave to me. I should remedy that somehow.

Not sure what I will do yet, but Reggie, I am workin on it. Feel free to holla back.

Woah... It's been ages since I was last on this site, but I got the email...

Reggie, thank you for your work. If it weren't for you I may have never thought to question what I had believed...

I only wish I had enough cash to have donated something, because what you've given me is priceless...

You're one of my heroes, Reg, and again thank you! Wink

Hey Reggie,

Even though I am a lurker now I got your email today and read this post and felt compelled to respond.

As someone who has been a repeat visitor of your website for 3 years now, I just wanted to let you know how thankful I am that you exist. I am an atheist who is literally surrounded by theists. Everyone in my family, all of my friends, and evenyone I come across in my social circles are all theists. To be perfectly blunt, Infidel Guy has been my oasis, my anchor. It is here where I come to not feel so isolated, to be amongst friends and like-minded individuals. Whenever I find myself feeling alone or frustrated with the theists around me, I just pop in one of your shows into the media player and I feel better just listening to the discussions and the debates.

I'm not sure if I'm still currently subscribed at the moment. I've decided quite recently to get rid of my credit cards and unfortunately your subscription is one one of those. I will most certainly have to correct this error.

In regards to the changes, I like them and hope that it works out. Don't get me wrong, I liked the Infidel Guy, but the fact of the matter is, is that while I liked the showed, if you didn't want to do the show anymore then I didn't want to you to do it either . As a fan, I'd much rather you be doing something you really liked and wanted to do rather than feel obligated to do something you hated.

For you and Amber, I will only say that I hope for the best and that whatever decision you should make, that it makes you both happy. Both of you are wonderful people and deserve the best.

So keep on chugging along Infidel Guy, because I'll keep listening Very Happy

Hi Reg

It's been a while since I'd been to IG due to several factors. I had to drop my gold membership due to my health insurance promising to pay for an expensive medical procedure then reneging after I had it done, then my wife lost her job right after that and she was out of work for over eight months.

I got your email today announcing the changes you've made and I just want to send to you my best wishes. I intend to become a gold member again very soon after our financial difficulties are behind us. I miss listening to the program very much.

Again, my hopes are with you and whatever endeavor you take on. You're an extremely hard-working guy and I have no doubt you will come through just fine.

Best of luck to you

Paul

".... emails full of demands and threats. .... The emails and PM's I am getting are atrocious. I am ashamed to say I even know some of you. "

fuck ALL of you who are giving reggie a hard time, you pieces of shit. what could be so bad about him canceling a domain that there would be threats???? fuck YOU, whoever you are. he's a person who is doing his best. use your head, his income is based on PLEASING people.

which is why i got out of retail. people are idiots and assholes when they know you have to do what they want or 'they get to tell on you'.

if anyone else wants to threaten reggie, send me a PM on myspace. i'll tell you where i fucking live. 300 lbs, benching 280, squatting 800, leg pressing 950. threaten me. not reggie.

reggie's community has really changed my life too, so i'll get emotional (be human) when i hear people 'threaten' him.

I found IG's post very encouraging. I had thought that atheism was becoming so powerful movement and that this site was, indeed, ready to take off.

I am encouraged that Reggie has to work a real job and am amused at his complaint that atheists don't contribute as well as religious people.

Surrounded as I am on this campus by jeering atheists, I see that a lot of what they have been pushing is a hypocritical load of crap.

Have a nice day! Laughing

Amused at someone else's misfortune. Talk about hypocritical.
