Hi There :)

Hi, there, just pointing out that how you describe yourself in the OP makes you an atheist, whether you like the label or not.

Great. Now you have a label for me which makes you comfortable. Good for you. 

As far as whether I "like" the label or not, meh, no skin off my sack. It's your need, not mine. Thanks for the warm welcome 

I used the word label deliberately as I thought it would be what you would be thinking about upon seeing my grammatical corrections.

I didn't mean to appear unwelcome. Still, though, I can see I didn't make my point clear enough. Whether you like it or not, or choose to identify as it or not, not holding an active belief in God automatically makes you an atheist. Atheism isn't some kind of label you can choose to identify with for its own sake. It's a word with a meaning behind it: lack of belief in God.

Again, I apologize that I'm doing this here, but I didn't see any more appropriate place to dispel your own confusion about what you seem to think about yourself, and, implicitly, about atheism. And yet, at the same time, it's been over two weeks that you've been on the site, I hardly think you're going to dislike it for my perhaps inappropriate comments in this already old introductory thread of yours. In other words, you're one of us now.
