    Atheist or Agnostic?

    Multicollinearity replied to firstyearstudent's topic in General Nursing

    I was raised evangelical Southern Baptist and I believed with all my heart. Children do that. Then they go out in the world and decide how much of that world they will let in, you know? You mentioned...

    Atheist or Agnostic?

    Multicollinearity replied to firstyearstudent's topic in General Nursing

    That is an interesting distinction. I'll search one of my sociology databases later this week. I'm studying for exams so I shouldn't be here now! Off the cuff, I think it would depend on many...

    Complications from a CT scan???

    Multicollinearity replied to sherichance's topic in General Nursing

    Did you have contrast? If so I suppose you could have an allergy to the contrast, if you have symptoms consistant with an atopic reaction. Otherwise, if you didn't have a contrast allergic reaction, I...

    Atheist or Agnostic?

    Multicollinearity replied to firstyearstudent's topic in General Nursing

    Funny how fundamentalist Muslims feel the presence of God and know everyone non-Muslim is mistaken. Funny how fundamentalist Christians feel the presence of God and know everyone non-Christian is...

    Jess, I don't have personal experience with this issue, but I'm so sorry this happened to you. Thank goodness you are away from your former husband. I don't understand why this would affect anything...

    Psych Nurse ="not a REAL nurse"?

    Multicollinearity replied to Meerkat's topic in General Nursing

    It's not crap. They are suffering. If they are inpatient, they are in serious trouble. In fact, some may be in such serious psychological pain that they perceive their existance does depend on getting...

    Atheist or Agnostic?

    Multicollinearity replied to firstyearstudent's topic in General Nursing

    I saw this too! My first thought was that if you know people are praying for you - then that might reinforce the idea in your head that you are in trouble - it must be serious. If that makes any...

    Atheist or Agnostic?

    Multicollinearity replied to firstyearstudent's topic in General Nursing

    I can understand that this is your perspective, especially since I was a devout Christian for 20 plus years. When I see a miracle now, I tend to say to myself "thank goodness and I wonder how soon...

    Here's a link. You can look up the statistics on adherants by denomination state-wide or nationwide and look at the maps. Mainline protestants, liberal denominations, etc dominate in the North. You...

    Fokker, Sociology studies clearly show much higher rates of Christian fundamentalism in the South. Just a fact. Love your screen

    Atheist or Agnostic?

    Multicollinearity replied to firstyearstudent's topic in General Nursing

    I think the degree of difficulty you may experience with this really depends on where you are in the US. It would be quite interesting for an atheist who is 'out' to live in the South. In the North,...

    Atheist or Agnostic?

    Multicollinearity replied to firstyearstudent's topic in General Nursing

    That's really too bad. Even though I don't believe in any god - I certainly understand that those who do have strong feelings on the matter. I would always support patients need to express their...

    You wonder if you are going to find yourself feeling the odd one out? Well, atheists are definately in the minority in the US. Sociology studies show that women without a doubt, have higher levels of...

    are you born a nurse or do the nursing instructors make you a nurse?

    Multicollinearity replied to misouritraveller's topic in General Nursing

    Well, looking at my own post I can see that I spelled two words incorrectly. I feel 'called' to not criticize anyone's spelling. Especially on an Internet forum. Especially for those who just worked a...
