Hi, new here.
August 20, 2014 at 11:33 am
Hi, I'm really glad to have found a forum like this, all of my family ( that I know of ) have some form of a religious view and I find it hard to discuss Atheism with them as they don't have the same view point as me. I'm really happy that I can have discussions with like-minded people with the same outlook on the world.

Here's some history about me: I was born in a Christian household, not really knowing what to believe I was more of an Agnostic than an Atheist. I thought praying was a ridiculous thing to do ( and never really participated in it ). I went to church with them but didn't really know or care what was happening. Nor did I want to be there as I didn't feel right there. And so a few years ago I became an Atheist and haven't looked back since.

"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 OP!

Since you are religion-less, may I interest you in pastafarianism?

It is truly the one, correct, true faith! Lots of benefits after paying the intro fees!

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