Hi all! Lurked around on a few atheist sites, but this seemed to be one of the more popular ones, so here I am.
Little background:
I'm an 18 year old non-theist living in a Christian household. I've been obsessed with music for my entire life. I play a few instruments, and my physical music collection is somewhere around 400. I may or may not study to become an audio engineer.
Think I'll stick around.

I have an account on Happy Atheist Forum, that's about it for atheism sites.
