...but some here will know me from af.com.

Not much of a story to tell. Never really believed in any gawds though I did try (mostly tryin' to make mom happy) and for a short while even pretended. Bagged it in favor of rationality and have never missed it.

Hello, and welcome!
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Welcome.

How much is a one way fare to a planet without religious nuts?

Nope. It's a reference to "Waiting for the Galactic Bus" by Parke Godwin. Not the book that made me an atheist, but the one that made me realize it's ok to be an atheist.
