extheism

The state of rejection of any make beliefs pertaining to the existence of god (also known as cults & religions of same) which were programmed from birth, reached for due to life trauma, clutched at for group identity, financial greed reasons, shelter from addictions or leaned on to quell fear of the unknown or other disturbing fears and a plethora of classic human weaknesses.

After years of brain-washing and constant systematic reinforcement of existence of god; James decided to embrace extheism in order to get honest and put aside the following of make beliefs which were a product of childhood suseptablility so that he could accept the mystery of life and do the right things without the crutch and pretense of trumped up constructs.

Snoopyville

Another name for Santa Rosa, the home of deceased Charles Schultz and his awesome canine creation who'll live forever known as the one and only Snoopy.

Although Santa Rosa is known as the center of the redwood empire as well as a major hub of northern California wine country; if it's real importance was reflected in its name it would be forever called "Snoopyville".
