		Allow me to introduce myself :) January 3, 2009 at 5:43 am 
		Hello, I am CaLo.  I just came across these forums earlier and found myself lurking for the last hour or so, thus i registered and felt my introduction necessary      
I am 17, male, from Canada.  I am an atheist, however, the first 14-15 years of my life were lived Roman Catholic.  I was baptized, confirmed and have been and currently am going to a Catholic school.  I have come to realize that I don't really want to be apart of something I believe is as ridiculous as believing in dancing unicorns in the center of the Earth.    
I am very interested in the sciences, specifically astronomy, physics, and cosmology.  Next year i am heading to the west coast to study Astronomy at UVic.
 
That about sums it up, so hello to all, happy new year, etc. etc. and i will see you on the forums

		Welcome aboard!
	 
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan 
 Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
 
 Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
 
 You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Hi CaLo and welcome. 17 huh? I can(t) remember being that age but I know I wasn't indulging in heavyish discussions on worldwidewebs...progress I guess!
	 
 A man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?
