I'll try to make this short. I am a new member & new convert to atheism Smile I am a classical musician and music major in college and have found that in this career, I am surrounded by devout believers. Some know what I believe (or lack there of). And I have also lost friends.

So I Just thought I'd come here and find a place where it didn't feel so lonely in my thoughts about religion. Smile

Welcome to the forum. There are quite a few friendly people here, as well as a lot of recent converts. You should fit in fine. Smile

Welcome, I hope you enjoy it here.

I'm sorry to hear you lost friends over your deconversion. Philosophical differences on an abstract concept shouldn't have made a difference, but it does.

Hope we can cheer you up a bit too!

Oh nice, a classical musician! What instrument do you play?

It sucks that people can lose friends over something like (non-)belief in a god. I wouldn't want to be friends with someone who rejects me simply on the basis of that.

Welcome.
