A long-time lurker says hello

A long-time lurker says hello
I've been lurking on different atheist forums for a few months now but I never joined any of them cuz I was always to shy to say "hi". Until today that is! Tongue

My username and pic is from Ludwig van Beethoven. I wish I could have met the guy before he died cuz I like his music a lot. Anyways I've been an atheist for as long as I can remember so I never really had to deconvert.

This place seems nice. I hope I will get a chance to know you guys more. ^_^

Welcome!

How does it feel, finally stepping into the light?

(I have to echo RV's sentiment about wondering what lurkers make of our conversations.)
A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost

I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
