Hello Athiest forums!

  young lad!I, too, am interested to know if you are "out" in your family or not? Congrats on being as young as you are and able to think on your own. That's no small thing.
"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'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
Okay, since a couple people have asked now, I'll tell about my family learning about my atheism and such... just one question... Where would a topic like this go xD

Here is just as good as any place, your background could be part of an introduction.
If you'd like to post a de-conversion story, The Converts Corner is a good place to start a thread for that.

The WIN/Gallup End of Year Survey 2013 found the US was perceived to be the greatest threat to world peace by a huge margin, with 24% of respondents fearful of the US followed by: 8% for Pakistan, and 6% for China. This was followed by 5% each for: Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, North Korea. -LINK "That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke |
