Out of the Shadows

Out of the Shadows
Hey everyone. As you can probably tell, my name is StealthySkeptic. I chose that name because, even though I came out as an atheist to my parents about two years ago (who were definitely not upset despite raising me as Roman Catholic) I have to walk on eggshells around religious topics around my parents, friends, and especially girlfriend, and frustration is often inescapable. And so I watch and hopefully will get a chance to snipe at the stupidity of religious extremists from the shadows, really let em have it, you know? All while meeting some pretty cool people.

Han Solo: Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other, and I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen *anything* to make me believe that there's one all-powerful Force controlling everything. 'Cause no mystical energy field controls *my* destiny. It's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.

Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you

Good to have you here.
Sniping from the shadows is cowardly in my opinion.
There's enough keyboard warriors already.

When you have logic, you don't really need any other weapons.

Welcome.

Here you'll find plenty of atheists and several theists of all stripes - some good, some bad.

Well, I tend to be pretty logical (I would like to think), but sometimes I just gotta be like this-

Devil

(I kid, I also try to be nice and calm online, but I've been to the dark corners of Ray Comfort's Facebook page...*shudder*)

He and his followers are also the Teflon Dunces because any criticism (or reason for that matter) does not stick with them.

Welcome.

You deserve a girlfriend you don't have to walk on eggshells around.

Really.

No matter what, it ain't worth it.
