Hello, Everyone.

[TimeDivider]

Hello. My name is Michael. I am new to the forums, but definately not new to the concept of atheism. I am what you would call a radical atheist. I have not been as antagonistic in the past few years, but that is due to a realization I had come to. I envision a future for man that is greater than any selfish believer's wildest dreams of an afterlife. A future where knowledge, and the pursuit of it, are the cornerstone philosophies of our civilization. As long as religion exists, this simply cannot be, and we are left with a hunter gatherer society intellectually. There are many things we atheists lack that religion has. That is motivation to spread our ideology. Our ideas, however, are much easier to swallow. All we need do is TRULY teach people how to reason, and logic should follow suit. I am eager to get started on the boards, and hope you are all having a great day thus far. Thanks.
