Well hello there

[Zen Badger]

Greetings my fellow godless heathens. I've just signed up and I suppose an introduction is in order.

Here's my life story in a nutshell. I was raised very religiously, Baptist. I have two pastors in my immediate family, my grandfather and uncle. I was a bible-thumping lunatic until I turned 15 and began to question the answers I had been spoon fed since birth. I couldn't take, "God did it" or, "Just have faith" as an answer anymore without any basis in fact. Spent a short time as an agnostic, then made my way to glorious atheism. My religious upbringing has given me insight into Christianity at least. I'm well versed in the bible, I was studying to become a pastor myself. I've felt the "presence" of god, which is nothing more then the power your mind has over the body. I can debate with the best of them and I will admit I can be a bit of a troll. I'll do my best to behave, however.

Hi dude, it's funny that, when people start to question their faith they usually lose it
