New guy alert.
Howdy gang.

Recently some new members joined my usual forum from here, and I've heard good things, so I decided to come on over and meet you guys!

My story's not all that exciting, so I'll keep it short. Although I come from a Christian family, my parents never took it all that seriously, and I've been an atheist pretty much since I was old enough to have the inclination to consider god. Religion never did make sense to me. No deconversion or anything like that.

Aside from being an atheist, I'm also a husband, dad, and farmer. I'm a good friend to the few that I choose to be close with, and I'm a bit of a tree hugger. Aw shoot, who am I kidding. I'm a big tree hugger! Lol. These are the kinds of things that make me who I am. When I meet someone new, the last thing I do is tell them I am an atheist. It's not a shame thing, or even to avoid confrontation, it,s just that being an atheist is a very small piece of the puzzle that is me.

Guess that about covers it.

Interesting, you, yourself and you are an atheist trinity.

Welcome to the Forums.

I hope you enjoy it here, it gets a bit rabid at times, but fun nonetheless.

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?

Well, we tried a steady course of logic injections, but the targets immune system always rejected it before it reached the required areas of the brain.

After that, we resorted to evidence pills, but they required the target not to blinded by staring at the sky for too long.

I'm starting to think we should resort to the placebo of deism so at least they don't hurt anyone.

Hello and welcome to the forums! ^_^
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
