Heyo, DVN here!
November 7, 2013 at 8:09 pm
Hey there everyone... this is DaVinciNinja! Why DVN? Well, DaVinci is my favorite historical figure and a ninja is what I am. Wink I am currently serving in the American "silent service" (submarine fleet) and am looking for a place to discuss topics with fellow atheists/free thinkers as there aren't many in the military-- so I looked to the internet.

A little about myself; As was mentioned, I am a proud U.S. sailor and submariner! I was born in Italy but was raised in New York. As far as my religious views goes-- I am an "agnostic atheist." I don't believe in god(s) but I do accept the fact that I can't know that for sure. My political views? Let me just say I love political discussion! I am progressive minded on social issues. As far as fiscal matters are concerned I am very moderate but usually lean left. My views are always up for debate and I do try to keep an open mind at all times-- I tend to respond better to mathematical fact rather than ideological assertions.

Hobbies? I like to keep fit, play video games, listen to music (all kinds), and I love to learn.

Well that's some basic information about me! Ask me any questions and I can't wait to start posting in threads here. Smile Hooyah Navy! Tongue

Welcome aboard... love the avatar!
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.'

hooyah!

Navy boys are most certainly welcome in the bunny club Wink
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

Yo 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

The military aren't interested in many freethinkers. Can't have people questioning the orders of the higher ups, now can we?

Welcome aboard, DVN. It's nice to meet you. Since ninja is in your name I'm wondering if you ever heard of Ask A Ninja?
