If it helps, I got it. Haha

Hello to you from another part of the UK! I think you'll fit in nicely around here; I like the cut of your jib. You must tell me the name of your jib-cutter!

(Note to everyone else: yes I know I've used that line before. I wouldn't be at all surprised if I use it again. Can't keep up this completely original rapier wit all the time, you know..! Or even at all.)
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Welcome

Very happy to hear you do charity work! I know a number of people (all Xians) who do charity work, and a few that do it overseas. I have a very high regard for them. They sacrifice a lot to do it, especially the simple things like living standards, that the rest of us take for granted. Hope you continue doing it, after all someone somewhere needs medical care and isn't getting it!

Oh and in the interest of disclosure... I am one of those dreaded FTBullies you keep hearing about... (I write at A Million Gods)
What difference does it make to be an atheist of 999,999 gods rather than a 1,000,000?

Why exactly did you feel the need to point this out? Are you insinuating that christians who do charity are better than anyone else? Or are you just indicating to us the very limited social circle you have?

Welcome new guy...
