Hello
January 24, 2010 at 1:04 am
I'm obviously a new member here, so I decided to drop by and introduce myself briefly.
I've always had atheistic ideologies, but only recently have I "officially" become a rejector of religion in my choosing to not be confirmed into the Catholic church. There is still a ton of stuff I need to do, and the trip into atheism has been very emotional for me because of my family's reactions, mainly.
Thus, to cope, I decided to browse the internet, and there is a ton of information that has helped me a lot. I decided that since religion (or lack thereof) is such a big part of my life as of late, joining an online community wouldn't hurt. So, here I am, to chat about anything and everything that has to do, to any degree, with religion. I hope my stay is enjoyable for myself and also others.
Other than that, I'm a generally mellow person and opinionated to a degree. I love video games, movies, and expanding my knowledge.
P.S. My name comes directly from Inglourious Basterds.

Welcome on Atheist Forums Arivaderchi!
I like the poly-atheist term. Join in on discussion here on orbiting teapots, the structure of spacetime and the question whether guitar gods exist or not.

That's neat, perhaps I will stumble upon a conversation dealing with said position.

Welcome to the forums "We're in the business of Nazi-killin'. And boy, business is boomin'!" Of course, we all know that Pulp Fiction is far superior to Inglourious Basterds.
Thanks for the welcome everyone.
