Hey there, thought I'd make a formal intro since I forgot about it.
My real name is Mike. In my youth I was "that kid" that the church kicks out of Sunday School for asking too many questions in front of the other kids, like; "6000 years old? What about dinosaur fossils?" or "Isn't the ark still too small for millions of lifeforms?". My parents were religious (Lutheran and Catholic) but not strict about it. So it was easy for a Scientific worldview to win someone inquisitive like me over at a young age and very easily over mysticism--lucky me for having Cafeteria-Christian parents. I'm quite thankful for their philosophy to let me believe whatever conclusions I came to.
It's great to be part of a forum with so many Agnostic/Atheists/Anti-Theists like myself because it seems like other forums are still full of very pious individuals who don't like religious discussion in the forums. But I'm sure you theists here are entertaining and nice, aren't ya? I have never been a believer myself even as a child, mainly since no religion has met their burden of proof, the evidences against religions are huge and other logical and emotional reasons.
If you made it this far through my shitty speech, you are truly a god/godess among the people. 
If the hypothetical idea of an afterlife means more to you than the objectively true reality we all share, then you deserve no respect.

Welcome. Have fun.
If you got through my terrible speech, how could you not be an omnipotent being?
Sounds like good evidence that you're god to me.

Entertaining? Maybe.
Nice? Well, I think I'd like to plead the fifth on that one.
