I'm from East Tennessee as well! Kingsport. Thanks forthe many welcomes guys. I feel very welcomed haha. And no, I don't have a care in the world for football. I stopped believing in Catholicism because of all the contradictions I noticed. Thanks for the advice as well. I'll probably tell her(my gf) soon. Next time religion comes up. I'll wait a while for my parents. It's really nice to know there are so many other Atheists out there
