Absolutely. Always room for one more on the altar!

Hi new guy!
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Welcome

Hope we prove valuable test subjects.
"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

I'll say welcome.

I won't take part in any surveys, though.

I'm generally here to get away from that sort of thing.

I think your survey results will be skewed both by voluntary participation both on the forum and in your polls. Only a random sample will mean anything.

Welcome none the less.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

I am actually here for a few reasons. I am conducting a study comparing the ultimate realities of theists vs nontheists, and the impact of each on society. So questions and points may be rather stark, but they serve a good cause.
Consider my posts then to be a social experiment/survey. At any rate, I do hope theists and nontheists alike don't mind a challenge to their belief system... I have always personally believed that personal challenges perfect my belief system.
Good meeting you all and have a great day!

Welcome aboard, pilgrim. Good luck with your study of human beings and the fantasies they create to explain their experience. I'll bet you've already uncovered some real whoppers.

You can start by not calling "atheist" a belief system. "Atheist" merely is the "off" position on one claim. Calling "atheist" a belief system is like saying "off" is a TV channel. We are not a club, we are not a political party, we are not a religion. Atheists have very different backgrounds and political and economic views.
