Hello everyone!
My name is Scott and I am from the state of Texas, which if I understand correctly isn't known for having a ton of free-thinkers. As fate would have it, I actually attend a Christian High School, so some interesting conversations come up despite the fact that I am not openly atheist around that group of people. I've actually been aware of this forum for a while but just got around to joining because I wanted to have some engaging and informative conversations with others about politics, philosophy, human psychology, ethics, religion, and how to be an "apologist" for atheism in a overwhelmingly born-again Christian community. I am an ex-Presbyterian, a die-hard Communist, social activist, philosophy enthusiast and above all an audiophile and a fan of music of many styles and genres. I hope to hear from you all soon and hope my stay here is a good one!
