New to the forum, just wanted to say hi!
Hey Everyone! Just setting up an account although I have been lurking around for a little while. For a little background; my name is PJ and i'm 21. I grew up in what i would say was a christian home, we went to church on and off until i was around 13-14 though I never enjoyed it and I am not really sure if I really believed any of it, or if I just went along with it because I felt i was supposed to.

When I was around 16 I started calling of myself as agnostic. At 18 one of my friends passed away in a car accident and I really started to think about my faith and what I really believed. It wasn't hard for me to come to the conclusion that I didn't believe any of it and I started calling myself an atheist.

I have been trying to find a way to summarize my views in a few sentences but i'm finding it a lot harder then i thought it would be... For now guess ill just say i'm a very rational and i guess you will all figure it out as i rack up some posts. Or feel free to ask!

PS: Grammer was never my best subject so please bare with me hah
Look to this day: For it is life, the very life of life. In its brief course lie all the verities and realities of your existence. The bliss of growth, the glory of action, the splendour of achievement are but experiences of time.

For yesterday is but a dream and tomorrow is only a vision; And today well-lived, makes yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. Look well therefore to this day; Such is the salutation to the ever-new dawn!

Self-authenticating private evidence is useless, because it is indistinguishable from the illusion of it. ― Kel, Kelosophy Blog

If you’re going to watch tele, you should watch Scooby Doo. That show was so cool because every time there’s a church with a ghoul, or a ghost in a school. They looked beneath the mask and what was inside?
The f**king janitor or the dude who runs the waterslide. Throughout history every mystery. Ever solved has turned out to be. Not Magic.
