A year ago, when I finally started to feel comfortable with the lable 'atheist', I began reading conversion stories on Dawkins website. It's called Converts' Corner, the same as here, so every time I searched for the page on Google, I saw AF's Corner. I got interested, clicked on the link and without reading a single thread on this forum, I decided to join it. I think it was a really smart move on my part 
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
