Introducing Pecan Pie

Please join me in welcoming one of the newest members of the Atheist Blogroll, Pecan Pie.

Greetings!  I’m the Little Pecan (also known as Alana in my real life.) I’m an atheist, an aspiring sociologist, a mom and a football freak.  Oh, yeah, I’m good at singing, too and I’d like to fancy myself a writer, but I’ll let y’all be the judge of that.

I’m the owner of Pecan Pie, which is a nod to my beloved state of Georgia.  I write mostly about social issues, but being in the South means that I also write about the atheist experience.  That’s a social issue if ever I saw one and the more out I am as a nonbeliever, the more I seem to need to respond to reactions to that admission.

I hope to see you over at my little space in cyber space and thank you for allowing me the opportunity to introduce myself.

Alana (aka Pecan)

Glad to see a new anti-religious website. I just hope you pronounce it puh-KAHN. Woe be unto those who say PEE-can or pee-CAN or--Dawkins forbid--PEE-kin!
I say pee-Can. Woe be unto those who can't appreciate a Southern accent. ;-)
I make the best sweet potato casserole evar. With pecans. They are candied.
I'm from Texas. Your argument is invalid. :-)
Texas is not The South.

Exhibit #1: Texans don't pronounce anything in typical Southern fashion (see Pee-can above.)

Exhibt #2: Texas is Mexico trying to disguise itself as the South...except when it doesn't suit them and then

Exhibit #3: they're their own republic.

Please note: Being a member of the CSA does NOT make a state Southern. Florida is also not the South. Just sayin'.

No, no! I'm not claiming that Texas is "the South." Texas is better than the South. Just ask any Texan. ;-)

I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to lead a breakaway sect of Pecanites. It's time to reform the movement and return to the True Faith (and true pronunciation)! I'll pray for you.
True Pecan™

In the religious debate group I moderate (as Chris so lovingly referred to below Religious Roundtable or RR for short) plays the True Christian game. I've been planning to contact Parker Bros. for about 4 years now to patent the family fun sensation that is True Christian.

Now I have a version all my own. Yay!
Seriously, good luck with your site!
Thank you so much! So far, so good. I've been away from blogging for several years.
I'm a fan too. I putting you on my favorite list.
Thank you so much and thanks for what you're doing to help the non-theist community.
regarding what we refer to as pecans in RR- the yum comment is cracking me up!! Think I'll follow you here too Alana!! Thanks!!!
