Why did you join this forum?
I'm still in the process of figuring out why I'm here.

What motivated you to join?

I spent the day in contemplation yesterday and it dawned on me that it isn't good etiquette to become a new member of a forum, introduce myself, and immediately begin to talk about eating excrement and doing dead people. Sorry!

The Mods here are Saints. I'm gonna try to clean things up and become a normal member of Atheistforums. It won't happen over night. You'll see improvement though.

RE: Why did you join this forum?
I felt like joining to vent some frustrations about christianity, and talk to like minded people. This was the first one I found, since I just types Atheist Forums in the search box. I didn't actually expect a forum named Atheist Forums.

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.

To argue with lots of muslims about the quran.

There's only 1 muslim Rayaan here now and he only briefly interjects things randomly here and there into a few threads and doesn't really debate too much.

I didn't notice you spoke about excrement and dead people but I think you should carry on talking about whatever you enjoy talking about.

Also I'd say anyone who came here to argue with christians you're already beating a dead horse, I don't think even many christians alive today believe in the bible and those who do are considered outcasts and crazy.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

Thank you! It does get me out of my depression to talk about my interests but it is offending people

RE: Why did you join this forum?
I joined because the old atheists.com forum I was on went defunct.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.

I hear there is a designated section of the forum where we can ask questions about what is appropriate. Where is that located. Please and thank you!

We have this forum and the PM inboxes of the staff are also available, in case you have some questions you want to ask in private

I joined one day because I was home alone and bored. I signed up for the very first atheist forums I found, jumped in and boy, was that a good decision! Big Grin
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

RE: Why did you join this forum?
I joined because the sci-fi forum I had run for years had just fallen over and I needed to get a sense of an online community and since I'm an atheist I lurked here for a while and liked what I saw.
