Only a few months ago I started to question my beliefs. Only a few weeks ago did I "officially" renounce my faith and admit to myself I was an atheist.
It was really watching George Carlin who started my "descent". From then I started watching Richard Dawkins debates and interviews, documentaries on evolution, panel discussions with physicists, youtube atheists like DarkMatter2525. Right now I'm almost done with The Ancestor's Tale by Richard Dawkins. Next I wanna read Krauss' A Universe From Nothing. Hell, I've already got a pretty long list of books to read that my Mom probably wouldn't approve of lol. It's all like previously forbidden knowledge lol. Not to mention I've been spending a lot of time on this forum and atheist-related FB pages.
The point of the thread: for me atheism is still new and exciting. But does it ever die down and just become a background thing? After the "novelty" wears off...then what?
