The Atheist Movement.

[Excited Penguin]

That must be why you frequent an atheist forum. Because the subject is so irrelevant and boring to you.

You know why I cam here? Because I expected to find liberal minded individuals. I frequented boards like Fearbush before that and my rationale was to find similar people here. Not because I wanted to wave a flag for atheism. But because I expected that people here would be more open minded than on political boards.

Turns out I was half right. I met as many interesting persons as I met sheep on both sides of the spectrum. Turns out that the numbers are almost equally divided between people I would love to meet in real life as the ones I have next to no interest in.

So, as I said. Atheism doesn't define me. My values do. And they have nothing to do with atheism, other than the god clamp being off.

Why are you trying to sell that idea as something peculiar to you? I'm pretty fucking sure every single one of thinks the same, both regarding atheism and why they joined these forums. Generally, though, we don't like to make as if we're so fucking special for thinking that way.
