Hi everyone :)
Hey guys, I'm a 29 year old long time atheist. I was born, raised, and still currently living in the Bible Belt like a leper. Hoping to make some like-minded friends.

Hiya 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

You have no idea! But I've felt this way for probably 15 years now, so I'm used to it.

Welcome. I lived in the Tampa Bay area for 2 years, and was surrounded by Southern Baptists, who always liked to stop me on the street and confront me about religion. As for the rest of the south, dunno. Went through AL, MS and LA on I-10 moving to Arizona. Only stopped for gas in AL, but it looked bleak.
