Hi chaps.

Hi chaps.
Hi fellow Atheists & current 'believers'.

New to the forum, thought I'd introduce myself.

From NW England, I was brought up catholic as a child, in a Protestant family. Obviously religion wasn't taken too seriously, as I was baptised to make it easier for my family to get me into a good school - both primary & secondary. Strangely enough, when I realised I could ask questions (12/13 years old - I'm 27 now), this was the first embarkment I embraced into reason, reality & truth; by questioning why my parents jumped through hoops just to start off my education in the first place.

Many moons later, self-educating myself on truths, Science, Nature & life in general I've ended up here to hopefully discuss/read/express logic & reason in all forms Smile

Apologies for the slight wall of text. Hope all is well.

Hello, fellow Englander!

I'm sure most Brits are only ever baptised to get into a school, and I bet you had to go to church in year 5/6 to get a Church Letter for secondary school then never went again, right? :-P

Hey. Lots of Brits on the forum (including me), good to have you here.

Would you say you agree or disagree with faith schools?

RE: Hi chaps.
You have to be baptized to get into good schools? That sucks :/

Anyway, howdy! Welcome aboard.

Be sure to barbecue kittens, record the NFL without their permission and rip the tags off of your mattress.
