I can't think of a good name for this thread, so...

Uh...hi.
I've recently become curious about atheism, and as I am now in college, I can research it online on my laptop without anyone knowing. I looked at a number of atheist sites before coming here and decided that I liked this one best. I've been perusing the forum as a guest for a couple weeks, and decided that I wanted to contribute. I hope that I can post semi-regularly, but the posts will come as my schedule permits. I'll post my conversion story seperately in convert's corner.
P.S. If the black scleras weren't a dead giveaway, my avatar is not a self-portrait. I'm not really an artist, I envy them. That picture took me two or three hours to draw...

Welcome aboard, Darkstar. Is that a reference to the John Carpenter sci-fi classic and one of my favourote films, by any chance?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

Sorry, but it isn't. I haven't seen that movie. Apparently there is a skateboard company called Darkstar, as well, but I'm not based off of them either.

Good choice of name, whatever the inspiration.

Hi and welcome to AF! ^_^
I really like your avatar, so good job 
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

Oooh, BTW I just stalked your page (sorry! ), which anime/manga do you watch/read are and which RPG do you play?
