You know; a few posts, lurking,  getting a general sense of how thing operate here, etc. Call me cautious, I guess. Cognitive dissonance has reared its ugly head though, but I am pleasantly compelled to cast my lot in with you folks – so, hello everyone.
 
I’m an Atheist, through and through, and always have been. I did attend Catholic Bible Study for seven years, as a kid, but it just wasn’t my thing. Atari 2600 was my thing. Now, many years later, that basic disinterest in religion and God[s] has cultivated into an adamant love for video games. Smile 

As for religion and God[s]; well....it’s difficult to see people still believing in that hokey garbage, but whatever; that’s their problem.

You're pretty cool, Primordial.  Like you, I often test the waters too. IMO, it's an awesome trait, because it shows that you think before you act.  Welcome aboard.  Live long and prosper.

Oooh Spock vs Yoda!

Welcome new person.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
