Hello! I just realized that I probably should have introduced myself before making my first thread/rant.
I'm a 23 year old college student in school for my RN.
I've been an atheist for years.
I was raised as a catholic, got confirmed (against my wishes, but who could argue with received free gifts?), and then went through a period of agnosticism.
I have always been a firm believer in that which is proven by evidence. I don't have to tell you that I "believe" in science since it's fact and cannot be refuted. Upon learning about many other religious cultures, history, and scientifics, I can now say that I am an atheist and have been able to tell my immediate family about it, much to their dismay. Funny how none of them try to have a religious discussion with me. I'm pretty sure they are well aware that I can easily refute many things that they may say.
Regardless, I respect that different people have different beliefs. I just think that these people should also respect the fact that I may believe differently. I enjoy intelligent discussions.

Show me your proof/back up your claims and then I will consider your argument. That's only fair.
