I’ve enjoyed the previous look of GodlessGirl.com for some months now. I liked the color scheme, the amount of info I could pack into three columns, and it made me feel less like a slave to wordpress/blogger blah design I keep seeing all over the place.
However, Being the chick of change that I am, this could not last. I like bright and shiny too much to stick with old and busted. It got too cluttered, required too much hard-coding, and I wanted more space to spread out.
Enter: New themey goodness: two columns, no clutter, more automation for my lazy arse, and I just plain dig it.
Also new:
So let me know what you think, ask me some burning questions with the Talk Back form, and go visit some of the great godless websites out there on teh interwebs. Cheers!

Anyone have 2 million dollars to blow on a fine T-Rex named Samson? If you slip your check into her g-string, she’ll probably give you a lap dance. On October 3, the 66-million-year-old hottie is going on the auction block in Las Vegas.
Also among the items ready for purchase: the world’s largest known set of shark jaws and a wooly mammoth skeleton. Rawr!
Hopefully Ken Ham of the Creation Science Museum won’t be buying any of these items as toys for his animatronic Eden-dwelling children. The last thing we need is someone calling these amazing pieces 6000 years old and playing Pin the Tail on the Stuff We Won’t Admit is Older than God.

From The Secular Coalition of America:
Before the August recess, a resolution will be voted on by the House of Representatives that will require the Architect of the Capitol to engrave the words “In God We Trust” and the post-1954 Pledge of Allegiance onto the walls of the Capitol Visitor Center (CVC). References to religion and faith are already included in several of the permanent exhibits, and the words “In God We Trust” are even present in one such exhibit. But that’s not enough for Rep. Dan Lungren (R-CA) who is pushing for a larger, bolder display. Let your Representative know that you oppose his efforts.
The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimates that this additional engraving could cost tens of thousands of dollars. Tell your Representative that it is inappropriate for taxpayer money to be spent promoting a distorted image of America that undermines The First Amendment, and alienates the millions of nontheistic Americans who neither “trust in God” nor pledge “under God.” This legislation will most likely pass the House with a large majority vote; however, members of Congress must be educated about why appeasing the Religious Right is offensive to millions of Americans who value our nation’s secular heritage.
Even if this is a superficial decoration, I think it’s important that we secular citizens not let the little points slide by without our voices being heard. Every little bit helps.
You can contact your representatives here.
