Atheism comes with it a host of philosophical questions that are not usually adressed by religions, as I'm sure you're beginning to explore. i hope that although you may have found religion to be meaningless that you don't find life without it to be so. That is an assumption made all to often by theists about atheists. I find meaning everywhere. I proceed from the assumption that although we were not made for any reason, we're here, against all odds, and that's pretty damn special and precious. You chose a career that requires you to save lives. That's pretty damn special, too.

Thank you for the welcome. I have found life to have more meaning now that it is not clouded with superstition and useless ritual. Just as a side note that I like to bring up to theists who try to use miracles as proof of existence. As a Paramedic I have raised many people from the dead and there wasn't anything miraculous about it.
