Heya.

Just another atheist here. I've been identifying as such for a bit, and have become more outspoken about my feelings on this subject lately, more willing to engage, etc.

I've been a critic of organized religion for the majority of my life.

My personal philosophy is that it is better to believe more true things than false things, that our beliefs inform our actions, and that "I don't know" is a better answer to a question than a fabricated one.

Hi there!
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Hello and welcome to AF! ^_^
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
