I came here because I used to have interesting conversations with my friends who were all non-religious, but as we got older we all moved our separate ways and don't talk very often. I came here looking for those same type of conversations and was quite pleased with what I found.
Plus, it is so cathartic as an American atheist to talk to like-minded people. It's not that people are overtly pushing their beliefs in my face, but religion has a huge impact on our culture. It's nice to have a group of people to whom I can say, "So, how about that silly god shit?"

Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
