Hello
Late introduction but meh.

Hello, I'm an arab atheist, in my twenties(no details, forum posts can be held against you in a court of law in some countries) I became an atheist around 5 years ago when I started university, and I studied some life science (I was studying medicine, so evolution and how bacterias evolve and become resistant to antibiotics) and some history and general culture and darwin and his journeys and his own personal dilemas with his discoveries vs religion. And bam, I became an atheist. I'm surprised that my teacher was a christian and all the other students did not think twice about all that.

I am a software developer now(the medicine thing did not work out Big Grin) and I really love computers and development and all things logical. I looked for an atheist forum just to vent from some current events and things in general, and to be reminded that I am not the only sane person in the universe(sometimes, it feels like that)

My ultimate dream is to migrate to a society I can feel truly part of. Like any country in europe, and maybe the US

I wish the U.S. were more welcoming to immigration. Welcome to the forum.

I wish the U.S. was more welcoming to atheism. Still, it could be worse.
So how, exactly, does God know that She's NOT a brain in a vat? Huh

RE: Hello
Some of your former colleagues are making Europe less welcoming, too.

Greetings friend.

Thank you all for the welcome.

Greetings friend.

I know, and I see some youtubes about islamic protests in Britain, it's often worse than here!

I would not be sad if I can't get in while the other shit heads cannot get in as well. I care about earth still having a beacon of civilization left, even if it means I would not be in it.

But it seems everyone and their 4 wives and their 48 children are getting a visa to europe, while I am bombarded with impossible requirements of finding a job first, having the work owner prove that I am the only one fit to do it and that already existing people cannot etc...

On paper the immigration laws seem decent enough, but in practice it did not stop any of these shit heads getting in.
