Many people believe that there is no such thing as overpopulation, that the earth can accommodate an unlimited human population. They call overpopulation a myth.

How Do You Know when to Smile?

contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Kylyssa Shay) — Sun, 18 Apr 2010 11:49:06 EDT

Most people don't need to learn when to smile, when to frown, or when to cry out in pain. Many autistic people do. Even after autistic people learn such things, they often don't come naturally, they are often still conscious affectations.

I Want a Cure for Autism

contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Kylyssa Shay) — Sun, 11 Apr 2010 09:55:41 EDT

Many people with Asperger Syndrome or high-functioning autism object to the idea of curing autism. I disagree. Autism has affected my life too much to not want autism cured.

The Flaw in the "Everything Has a Creator" Argument

contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Kylyssa Shay) — Sat, 20 Mar 2010 20:39:29 EDT

It's a common argument used against both evolution and the Big Bang Theory - that everything must have an intelligent creator. It is also argued that no thing can come from nothing so God made it all. This is all presented as logic.

Without God, How Can an Atheist Feel Love?

contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Kylyssa Shay) — Fri, 26 Feb 2010 11:07:19 EDT

Some religious people believe that love and other emotions are part of humanity's divine nature, an aspect of being made in God's image. Because of this, as an atheist, I have been asked "How can an atheist feel love?"

Can Atheists Have Spiritual Feelings?

contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Kylyssa Shay) — Sat, 20 Feb 2010 11:28:32 EDT

There are many who would find the phrase 'atheist spirituality' to be a contradiction in terms. In fact, it is not. Belief in God, Gods, or other supernatural phenomena is not required for one to have spiritual experiences.

Why Atheists Don't like Religion in Politics and Why You Shouldn't like it Either

contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Kylyssa Shay) — Sat, 13 Feb 2010 19:11:36 EDT

Some religious folks think I ought to just shut my mouth and let them do whatever they want to government, create whatever religious laws they feel like. They think that atheists and non-Christians should have no input at all.

Did Being Homeless Make Me an Atheist or Did Being an Atheist Make Me Homeless?

contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Kylyssa Shay) — Wed, 10 Feb 2010 19:14:21 EDT

People often attempt to connect and correlate my periods of homelessness and ill health with my atheism. But I don't think that being an atheist made me homeless and I know being homeless didn't make me an atheist.

Why Don't Homeless People Just Get Jobs and Stop Being Homeless?

contributor-community@yahoo-inc.com (Kylyssa Shay) — Fri, 25 Dec 2009 20:26:14 EDT

Many people believe that homelessness is a choice, that all a person needs to do is get a job to stop being homeless. The fact is that it isn't that simple, either to get a job when homeless or to get out of homelessness even with a job.

Threads of Time

There is not just one reality, but many. I was never meant to be in any of them. Continuity constantly tries to reassert itself and erase the foreign body known as Tonya Kennigan.

Caught in a Red Handed Flash

Someone was knocking at the door. Ten years before it wouldn't have surprised her at all. But now that all citizens' comings and goings were monitored by the government, no visitor came unannounced or undocumented.

Do You Squidoo? I Sure Do!

I used Squidoo to promote my Associated Content articles. A few months later, I went onto Squidoo to add more links to AC and I saw this big blue box on my Squidoo control panel. It informed me that I had earned a few dollars. Wait, what?
