I am an RDF refugee. I ended up here and found a few familiar faces. I've stayed because of the ethos of this site and it's glorious leader. Whilst not perfect, I believe that it's the best there is of its ilk.

I was playing around with atheist quotes when I suddenly wondered if there were any atheist forums out there which is when I discovered this sites predecessor. In my first post I was told off by Tiberius for teaching my children that we evolved from fish which I thought was a bit rich coming from a childless teenager :p and promptly defended my actions.

The rest is history Big Grin

My husband found this place first and encouraged me to join. I found that I really like it here. I'm an admin on another atheist forum, so it is nice to be able to come here and not worry so much about what I say or how I say it. The other forum is where I hang out more, but it seems that once you are on staff, you are held to a slightly different (higher) standard.

The desire to converse with my fellow heathens drove me here.

I hadn't been a part of a forum in a long time and it's something I've always enjoyed. So I googled Atheist Forums and bam lol.

I was actually searching for Japanese tentacle porn videos and got directed here for some reason.Angel

NO,no,no...... I had actually been engaged in a very loooong running Evolution Vs Creation thread on a motorbike forum I'm a member of.

When that finally died, I decided to find a place where I could carry on the argument and found this place.

I was a member of one other atheist forum but it wasn't as good as this one.

I've thought about joining other forums but I spend way too much time here as it is.Big Grin
