Call me what you will, “ignorant, stupid, sheltered,” whatever floats your goat (Perhaps that can be my title instead of Christard?). Nonetheless I’d be very interested in interacting with this community. To be honest I nearly gave up my faith at least twice, although I’m not sure what kept me from it (a story for another time, I suppose).
You'd have got off to a better start without the presumption that we'll be bastards to you.

It would be a bit odd if there wasn't a single thing we agree on. Our theist visitors don't usually come here seeking conversation with atheists on things we might agree on though, unless they're searching for a 'gotcha!'. Hopefully, that's not you.

Welcome to the forum. There are plenty of topics that could fit the bill you're describing.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
