Hi, I'm new here.
Hey, I just joined the forums. I'm an atheist. I believe that when I die I go back to the same state of nothingness I was before I was born. Happy to join the forum you've got here.Big Grin

Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day

RE: Hi, I'm new here.
Welcome to the forums Stealth.

I don't believe in an afterlife either Tongue

I can't resist the urge quoting this on the matter:

Quote:'We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones. Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born. The potential people who could have been here in my place but who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Arabia. Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton. We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA so massively exceeds the set of actual people. In the teeth of these stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here
-- Richard Dawkins, excerpt from Chapter I, "The Anaesthetic of Familiarity," of Unweaving the Rainbow: Science, Delusion and the Appetite for Wonder (1998)'

The source I got it from was here http://www.positiveatheism.org/hist/quotes/dawkins.htm

Anyway! As I said Smile - Welcome to the forums Big Grin
