Don't worry, no one expects you to be openly slagging off God or anything. We generally do it because we find it fun! You'll fit in just fine without worrying about that. Let us beat up on him for you, until such time as you feel ready to throw the odd bitch slap in too
I hope we don't make you uncomfortable, on the whole we are insulting ideas and not people. We insult religion, not the religious. That is my aim anyway A lot of religious people take insults against God and jesus personally, but to me that's just more evidence that both those things are in their mind only.
Hi there robvalue
Thanks for that reassurance - I didn't think I'd be quite so sensitive about it. I guess I have never truly closed the book on it, just moved away from it as my Atheist theories have developed over the years.
Thank you to everyone for your friendly welcomes I'm looking forward to meeting you all in the other forums
