Greetings one and all
Just call me Kosh

I've been an Atheist for over 25 years.  I grew up Lutheran, but in the late 80's I watched a Sally Struthers Christian children's fund commercial, and became an atheist.  Chew on that for awhile Smile

I'll go into more detail on that later.  I'm looking for a place to share in conversation.  My atheistic views and general distaste for what religion has done to our species isn't something I normally trot out in casual conversations at the water cooler.  It usually takes three or four manhattans to get me to that level of apathy.

Welcome. Pretty interesting, and sudden, point at which to become an atheist.

Welcome from Tennessee!

Where one of our school systems is considering banning all after school clubs to make sure there can't be a Gay/Straight Alliance! Because Jesus!
"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

Not enough caffeine, can't type more.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
