One more atheist in the block
June 2, 2010 at 2:45 pm
Hi guys, I´m an Atheist (go figure) roaming around for good thought. I'm from Portugal, a very Catholic-laden country, so I really need someone to talk to that does not answer me "God Knows". I am yet to meet someone that feels confortable enough to say "I'm an Atheist", most border on Pantheism, but still some 'fear' to admit the god proposition might be false.

As a side question, what are the usual members positions on the globe, might I ask?

Welcome to the forum LastPoet !
As for your question, there is a majority of Americans and British but there's also a lot of countries represented on the forum. I'm from France.

Welcome
US, East Coast There's a Usermap at the top near chat, that will give you a lot of the locations.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

Hi, LastPoet... Welcome to the forums. I certainly hope your user name isn't to be taken literally! That would be a shame.

I'm in Michigan, U.S.

Hello and Welcome LastPoet

I'm in southern England.

The majority of folk here are either English or American, but there are plenty of exceptions.
