Weak atheist/deist here, hello!
August 8, 2015 at 4:17 pm
Hi I'm Vixene, 20 years old and apparently a weak atheist/deist. I don't believe in a God, but think there is a slight possibility that a higher being exists, who is not involved whatsoever with whatever we do. Been this way for about 4 years but still pretending to be a Christian at home until I move out completely.
I'm also a medical student from the UK! Don't know if this is an AMA or just a thread informing you of my existence. Take it as you please.

Welcome Vixene! Saw some of your other posts. Hope you tolerated your first dip into the pool and keep coming around.
Enjoy school. Undergrad and grad school was one of the best times in my life.

Welcome vixene
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

Welcome, Vixene! You can cut on me anytime. Well, at least once you've interned for a little while and as long as you accept evolution. I've always thought physicians who reject evolution are like auto mechanics who don't believe in spark plugs.
Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former.

Hello and welcome!
I thought you looked awfully well preserved for a 45 year old. 20 seems more right for your picture. (On your profile page, it says you were born in 1970.) Though I have seen great looking 40-somethings, I was going to ask you for your secret to your youthful appearance, but I see now that your secret is that you are still young.
