Welcome, TheBootywarrior. I know it's not easy to be a Somali atheist. I'm afraid my personal ethics won't allow me to pretend to be Somali, and I suppose a non-Somali atheists would not be welcome there.
I hope you'll decide to spend some time with us anyway.
I'm going to be a bit nosy, but don't feel obliged to answer any of my questions.
Do you live in Somalia now? If not, what country are you in?
Are you a clan Somali? If so, which clan? I have many friends from Somalia, but most of them are Bantu refugees, not ethnic Somali.

We have an ethnic Somali professor I have met a few times at the University of South Carolina, though: Dr. Garane Garane.

He was very helpful in relocating 22 refugee families from Somalia to Columbia SC.

Looking like this one is a one post wonder.
Yeah, probably so. Too bad, a Somali atheist is a rare breed. Likely a teenager though, and our forum can be a bit of a shark tank for people with undeveloped skills, so it might be just as well to throw him back and give him a chance to grow first.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
