So, what exactly, is an "anti-theist"? I've seen some creative spins on "atheist" in order to highlight a personal trait, like "polyatheist" tries to show that the person disbelieves every god, but have never heard of "anti-theist".
Not sure what there is that will exactly be out of your realm of expectations for the people on this site, people are either atheists of some kind, Christians of some kind, or "other" of some kind. So, you're likely to get responses along the lines of "Hi, person like us, welcome!" or "Repent, sinner! Jayzus Herbert Chrast is your only way to heaven!"
Not sure WHY exactly you will dislike most of us, in religious terms, we're pretty similar. So unless you differ on politics or philosophy from the majority, and choose to focus on those discussions, not sure what the reason for despising us would be.
Also, please clarify what you mean by "Folly in the guise of logic...". Are you saying that logical arguments are foolish, regardless of the validity of the conclusion? Please explain.
Atheists. You'll find atheists here. If you're looking for some hardcore philosophical, political, or religious debate or discussion, you won't find much here. Yeah, that's disappointing if that's what you wanted, but I'm not entirely sure why a person would join a forum without looking at the common discussions.
Since you brought it up, I like metal, but I've never heard of Shai-Hulud until now. Or maybe you worship sandworms. Who knows.
Oh yeah. Wilkommen.

Is there really any evidence for the faith existing during the Bronze Age?
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

Welcome. I'm curious. You self-identify as an anti-theist. In keeping with the spirit of the forums do you have any proof or evidence that no god or gods exist?
