Hey everyone, seems like a pretty cool forum. Smile

20 year old Aussie atheist, been watching a lot of debates on YouTube about religion and such, and have become more interested in the topic. I've pretty much always been skeptical of God, can't think of a time I actually prayed. I have Christian relatives on my European side and Muslim relatives on my grandpa's Malaysian/Chinese side. I actually spent a lot of time on a forum for ex-Muslims, quite eye-opening reading stories of people who run away from forced marriages. Anyway, I look forward to hopefully learning something new here!

Cheers. Smile
“It is always difficult to make the transition to a modern world.
I moved from the world of faith to the world of reason -
from the world of excision and forced marriage to the world of secual emancipation.
Having made that journey, I know that one of those worlds is simply better than the other.
Not because of its flashy gadgets, but fundamentally, because of its values.
― Ayaan Hirsi Ali

Welcome to AF! ^_^
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

I don't understand, if you are from Australia then why isn't your text upside down?Big Grin And how do you people manage to go to the bathroom upside down, that has to be messy.

Anywho, just ignore the typical cornball train wreck in the form of my bad jokes and accept my welcome.

Welcome

You'll certainly learn about the depths of human stupidity if you stick around long enough.

Hello Ari, I'm forever going to imagine you have O_O eyes when you're posting.
Please give me a home where cloud buffalo roam
Where the dear and the strangers can play
Where sometimes is heard a discouraging word
But the skies are not stormy all day
