Hi! New to the forum

Hi! New to the forum
Looks interesting!

I'm 19 years old raised I'm a strict Catholic family. Attended Catholic school as a child. At age 12 I realized I didn't believe in God because the school made the mistake of placing science and religion class bact to back and at that young age I saw the contrast between fact and myth and I could never close that door or pretend anymore.

I told my parents a year later age 13 I didn't believe in God or the Bible and now identify as an anti theist, in that I would like to see society progress beyond religion and progress beyond judment and hatred in bigotry, which are mostly founded in religion.

I do practice certain new age spirituality but it's more of a way of maintaining personal mindfulness and inner peace. I do not believe in any deity. I don't claim to know what happens after death, but I don't care either...I see it as very likely a complete total oblivion of our self awareness so we should appreciate our time here, which makes me both a hedonist and a nihilist(yes its possible) as well as an individualist. I believe we should all live the lives that make us happy and accept each others choices.

I consider myself to be socially liberal apolitical and I hope that in the future the human mind progresses to the point of making most or all forms of government and politics completely unnecessary.

So that's me! Sorry its long!

Welcome!
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue

Anyhow..... Welcome!
