Hey all!
November 10, 2009 at 5:19 am
Hello, fellow atheists!

I'm glad to be a part of your forum.

Long story short, I'm interested in discussing the topic of religion with you guys, in the hope that I will gain some more knowledge on the subject.
Pretty much all I have now are my own philosophies, created from a couple of years of social isolation. I now have a decreased ability to feel, and so my emotion-based religious beliefs went with it.

My parents are both baptists, and so they reject evolution completely, where most other christian churches manage to shoehorn it in with their faith.

Thanks for reading... See you around, I guess!

Welcome along..

Tell me more about you decreased ability to feel.. Also, if you reject evolution it simply means you don't understand it.

Agreed.

Well, basically, I don't care about anything anymore. I guess you could call it a form of depression... Numbness... No motivation to do anything at all except for sit at my computer screen and read.

I guess I still feel a bit of residual anger though.

Welcome wanderer Smile I hope you enjoy your time here Smile
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
