:hi" from the land 'Downunder' Heather

We are a rather relaxed bunch here..nah REALLY !!

@Min...aww Min you are human after all??

[Kayenneh]

Someone here once even chose "God" as their username, I didn't think anyone could be as uncreative as that.

Hey, that's unfair! One of my nicknames IRL is actually God and it's always hilarious to hear someone say e.g.: "God said I had to move these boxes" or "God is actually an atheist".


Anyhoo, welcome Heather to AF! I hope you enjoy your stay! ^_^

@Min...aww Min Cuddle you are human after all?? Heart

It's a failing.

Awe thank you all for the warm greetings!!! I am right outside of Charlotte near Lake Wylie/Rock Hill, SC. And yes, alot of my friends are also Southern Baptist so we just pretty much steer clear of any religious talk. Again, I have never admitted to any of my friends or family that I am Atheist as it's easier to just say "I'm not very religious." I learned years ago that arguing with them is like talking to a brick wall. Every time I would question their thought process by asking why they believe what they do, the only answer would be "I just have faith."

I think my mind doesn't work that way. I was a biology/chemistry major in college. I like facts and proof. If you tell me the sky is blue, I will walk outside to verify that for myself. That's just me!!! To me, there is as much evidence that unicorns exist as there is that God exists so therefore my faith in the existence of both is pretty equal.

You'll fit in here very well Heather. Pull up a chair, a Mint julep and relax. Enough on here to keep the grey matter stimulated.

Well hell, girlie - anytime you want to hang out at some central point, let me know!

[Heather]

Yeah too crazy how close we are!! And i have no clue how to quote... I'll learn this stuff eventually!

And at someone's suggestion, I created an avatar. A unicorn based on my last post!

You can hit "reply" and that will automatically quote anything in that particular posting.

Or you can use the quote tags to be more specific

Code:

[quote] text quoted [/quote]

Also, if you want to quote a specific person or entity, you can do this:

Code:

[quote=whoever] text quoted [/quote]

We have a BBcode Guide to help you out. Or ask one of us.

Just be careful - sometimes if you drop a quote tag, the entire post disappears. Don't panic, just ask one of us "dark greens" (mods) or "reds" (admins) to help fix it, or you can do a "quick edit" and figure out where you left off the particular tag.
