Hi there,
Newby here. Just want to say hello and need someone to talk to really. I guess I have always been an atheist, but recently it has become something I feel very strongly about and I don't feel as though I can talk to any about it without being dismissed. I have always been interested in religion but the more I have explored it, the more I am convinced that it is man made and I feel so frustrated that others cannot see through the facade. My partner, although not religious, thinks I am a fanatic and anti-religious anything, but I just get so frustrated that secular views seem to get sidelined these days and religious views get president even though we are apparently living in a secular society. I don't begrudge people believing in whatever they want to believe in, but I fear the way things are going, within a few decades, we will have to believe in god or suffer the consequences. That makes me so fearful. I just need someone to take to to reassure me I guess,
