Hi Xeno... Can I call you Xen?

What do you mean by "slightly agnostic?"
Does that mean you are mostly certain but not totally sure?
Of what?

Welcome

That would be Zeno, I think
I took Xeno as short from Xenophanes. The one who said that cattle imagines its gods as cattle and horses as horses etc.

Indeed it would have been Zeno. Congrats! You passed JHC's first test.

Here, have a brownie.

Xenu was framed!

I mean my brain hasn't fully recovered from indoctrination and I'm still paranoid enough to consider the possibility. If that makes any sense.

It was a trap. With brownies.

Xenu is a douche. He had it coming.

You know...I wonder if I were to share my intro thread from my first atheist forum if it would make you feel better seeing how being among so many loving and supportive atheists has changed my life for the positive....

I am willing to PM it to you along with my journey to becoming a much more stable and confident atheist if you'd like. Just a bit of motivation. Overcoming a bad childhood with religious traumas is absolutely doable. I try to take things one day at a time and be proud of myself for even the smallest achievements. It may not feel that way now, but you're going to be just fine.

Sure, I'd appreciate that. Anything helps

Welcome. I hope you stay long.

Howdy!
