Whelp, make me feel good people

I'd like you more if you stuck around. That first post had some unfinished business.

Sure, I can post more. But I'd probably limit myself to this thread. So what unfinished business.

You're intelligent, but you might be trolling.

In any case, you sound quite a bit like me in that you have quite the ego and can't keep it under control. That either makes us great or idiots... not that we'll ever know for sure which.

There is no equivalent here. Your "side" is the only side. Religion is nothing without its adherents. Atheism, on the other hand, needn't even an universe to be in effect, let alone a world filled with people.

Don't take life too seriously. Not the banality of it, at least.

Nope, not trolling.

Hi there, welcome to the forum Thank you for telling us about yourself.

I hope you do stick around to talk, even if you don't venture outside this thread. I'm very sorry to hear about your depression. I can relate, I've been seriously depressed for the last 9 years or so. Life has been a big struggle, and not many people understand. Not many people even try to.

The majority of people who do understand, and who have been supportive, have been right here on the forum. So if you give everyone a chance, maybe we can help you. Several other people here also suffer with depression, so you're far from alone.

Feel free to message me if you have any questions or need someone to talk to.

You may be a bit odd but I already prefer you to most of the theists we have around here.

Greetings.

Welcome. Talking to anonymous people on the net can be good for the soul.
Let it all out. No one here will judge. We will reciprocate what we receive.

If you get the urge, have a look around. The forum is a good match for most personality types.

Welcome.

I'm sorry for all the shit that's happened in your life. I've had lots of that too.

Stick around. You may come to find that the world isn't entirely filled with assholes.

Yo and welcome.

I've also been diagnosed with severe depression in the past, i would probably have committed suicide if it wasn't for my parents.

I would suggest that you buy some books on psychology. It's ironic how easy it is to influence people but in your case, you can use it to better understand people and yourself.

I've considered becoming an atheist. I still am. Frankly who gives a shit because while I considered myself Christian, I did so because I was told to. I never spent much time thinking about it. So even if I am still Christian, what does it matter? I don't even practice the damn thing.

This is probably going to be my only post here. And frankly, I'm smart, but I'm irrational. I'm the guy on the bus constantly thinking to himself everyday, sometimes getting up to literally just pace. Though I'm also a very angry person. The long and short of it is that I have been diagnosed with Severe Depression years ago, and really there's many types of it. They're rarely seen sad because they only act that way when by themselves.  For me, I can only help but see the worst in people, everything really. Despite having reasonable grades, spending hours every night being self taught on the design of various Space Launch vehicles, I drew the short end of everyone's straw. I was called again an again, along the lines of stupid, incapable of higher thought, and a hamper to society's progress. And ironically, not by atheists. Pat yourselves on the back.

You see, I didn't have much to look up to other than being very fucking good at math and science. The only person I could ever call a friend was my physical science teacher. And even more funny enough, I had a very good comprehension towards science, including biology and as such evolution as a whole. Though it was never my interest, because I'm interested in things that take us away from life in general, called a rocket. In fact, I spent more time thinking about nuclear weapons that biology. Yet despite this, my college experience is anything but bearable. I've been shoved away from school for three weeks, only to have to make up those three weeks without any lecturing or help. I've been banned from study halls, tutoring centers and the library because I was very fucking angry. And I was arrested because I threatened a teacher who pretty much was as helpful as God.

My personal issue is that I have an obsession. Because of my failures in life, I've become insecure, and that's where the meat of depression gets in. There is in truth, allot of anger, allot of paranoia, and the inability to think rationally. And I have allot of that. I can only assume the worst of people, and I spend day and night thinking and imagining people gossiping and plotting against me. Wanting to humiliate me even further. Even though they showed no signs of that intent. And we know about the bad apples on all sides, including yours. I would eventually meet up with a very vocal atheist, one who probably decided to become one just for the sake of being smart or pissing others off. Okay, make that a few. And considering the events that already ensued, I am not willing to be nice to other atheists and anti theists.

To be very brief, I've come to hate atheists, and anti theists in general. Now, the amount of people willing to read on at this point could probably fit in a bath tub. I pretty much threatened allot of my friends for various reasons, but those who were anti theists or atheists received the worst of me at some point or another. I need to stop doing this and get on with my pathetic life.

Okay, so there you go. So, how about all of you tell me about how I'm going to become a terreests or sum stoopid shit lolololo!1111!!! Presumably so I can hate you more. And if you don't, I'll assume God exists.

You don't "become", you simply leave bad claims behind. I really wish humans would stop speaking in terms of any label as  "I am a"....... "atheist" is a position, it isn't your blood or DNA, it simply means you hold the "off" position on god claims.

Is there a good reason to hold the "off" position? Certainly, no evidence. But you don't become one like you become a club member at a country club. I would say educating yourself both in theists slick apologies and in science gives one a better view of why "off" is the credible position, but you don't "become" anything accept wise.
