ummm...New here...dammit I already screwed up.  Of course, I'm new here....jeezus !! I told myself I wasn't going to say anything stupid....and yet....there I go.  I should have taken that course on forum introduction 40 years ago when I was in high school.  Reset, reset !!  Hello, how are you ?  I'm fine. Thank you . 

I am old, cynical, bald and gray bearded, irritable at times,  can't hear well out of my right ear.  I love animals, laughing  and long walks on quiet beaches.  My parents had relations 55 or so years ago here in Texas and that explains my existence...doesn't explain why I've allowed it to go on for so long....but I can do that sometime as I have lots of words.

I am an atheist without much of an outlet for my random atheistic thoughts so I googled some things....and then I found you ..... ( such a good line.....if I wasn't so happily married I could use it sometime....you know when the whole meeting people in the produce section of Krogers proves ....fruitless.....bah hah...)

I apologize in advance for things .  If I ever upset you, please know that I'm on your side and if you think otherwise, it is only because I have misrepresented my feelings...and for that....well....already apologized in advance....so nothing more to say here.

Thank you for your time and patience........

Paulie

Welcome.  I'm even older than you.  Always good to hear from a Texas atheist.  Such a rare breed.

What's your opinion on Hitler and his ideology?

Welcome to AF.org, Paulie!

He existed and so did or perhaps does his ideology.  I suppose I could say....he was a bad bad man and he had bad bad thoughts.  What's you're opinion on litmus tests ? Personally, I get irritated by them.

Welcome!
