[insert clever thread title here]
sup fellow non-believers, joined this forum to find like minded people on the subject of atheism, hailing from a small southern town i don't get to speak with very many atheists and when people here find out i'm an atheist they automatically think i'm a sack of shit and say i'm going to "hell", all i can say to that is Go to Heaven for the climate, Hell for the company.- Mark Twain

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

Hard to imagine anything more limiting than a "small southern town"...except maybe a "muslim town." I have to admit that those guys are even worse.

Welcome.

Welcome.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

Are they the types who follow that with "I'm telling you this because I love you" or "and I'll be happy to send you there myself"?
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
