Hi, my name is ----- and I'm an atheist

Hi, my name is ----- and I'm an atheist
Hi, I'm new here. Just wanted to join a community, and be part of something I believe in.

To tell you a bit about myself, I have been raised as a muslim for most of my life, which I followed without thinking about it or asking any questions. It was only a couple of years ago, when I started thinking about it, and realised that I don't actually believe in it. No one I know really knows this, which is why I joined this website, so I could confess. I don't know how many muslims you get here, but living in an islamic based country, and being a muslim atheist is a BIG NO NO!!!!!

In terms of discussing in-depth theories, you're not going to get any intelligent comments from me. I've seen some of the posts on here, and people are quoting darwin and other smart people that I don't know, and saying really smart things. I became an atheist through logical thinking, although that's probably how other atheists came to their understanding.

People who follow a religion probably think that atheists are crazy and have no direction. But I think it's even crazier to believe in something you've never seen, nor can be proven. These religious books that people read were not sent down by god, they were written by human beings claiming it was from god. The only difference is that if you did that nowadays you would end up in a padded cell wearing a straight jacket.
