Well, here I am
March 15, 2013 at 11:15 pm
I did have a decent introduction prepared, but my browser decided to crash.

As can be gleaned from my username, I am an atheist. I was initially searching for a general religious debate forum, but none of them met my expectations. Therefore, I decided to go straight to the source of my beliefs and become a member of an atheist forum.

My first question, rather than create an entirely new thread to ask it, is this forum strictly comprised of atheists or are there also believers here seeking surprising conversations?

Hello and 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

To quote Obe Wan from the first original Star Wars "You will never find a more retched hive of scum and villainy."

Or you will find a lot of smart decent atheists.
