Greetings from a lifelong atheist!
April 5, 2015 at 2:14 am
Hello all, I'm Iroscato. I'm from the UK, and I've been an atheist since...oooh, as long as I can remember. I'm now 20 years of age and my conviction has only grown stronger with time. I only very recently decided to join a dedicated atheist forum, so I'm hoping you chaps are a nice lot 
My great passion/hobby in life would definitely be science and technology. Though I have regrettably little formal education in the field, I still keep fiercely up to date with developments and I fervently believe our innovations are the key to preserving our species. So yeah, sorry to get all deep on my introduction post, but that's me! See you all around I hope 
Iro.

Hi Iro, nice to meet you
I'm also a Brit and a "lifer". I have found the vast majority of people on this forum to be very nice, so I hope you will too.

Welcome from Italy Iro! I'm not a Brit nor a lifer, but I'm also 20. Well that's something 
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."

Greetings! I used to be a Brit, I'm also a lifelong atheist, and '20' is in my rearview mirror.
Glad to have you here.
