Greetings from Amsterdam / Holland !
June 1, 2017 at 8:09 am
Hi all !
Oh noes....another European wanker introducing himself here....
I'm a musician (Guitar / Piano), a self-proclaimed philosopher, I practice Aikido and I like women, Dutch cannabis and Dutch Beer. A lot.
Brought up as a Christian, I have become an Atheist while growing up. Since a couple of years, I have also become an "Anti-Theist", as I now actively fight against all religion, on almost all levels except violence. So, not with guns or knives or bombs, I mean, not yet (kidding).....If you see the state of my country now in 2017, with almost more (active) Mosques nowadays than (active) Churches, but also Islamic schools, Islamic sub-government institutions, etc. preaching fanatic Islamic propaganda, I feel one of our most important constitutional laws "Freedom Of Religion", is something my country but also the rest of the Western World has to have a good look at in the coming generations.
Anyway, I'm always open for all discussions and arguments. I like people who do not fear to express how they feel, but keep their coolness and politeness.
I wish you all the best!

Welcome.

Groeten van een zuider-buur. (Antwerpen)
New here myself. It's a fun place so far. Hope you like it here too.
Amsterdam is a fun city.
But between you and me, Dutch beer? Come now, can't you think of a better, close by alternative?
Btw, we got rid of sharia for belgium a while ago. Sharia for Holland still going strong? :/ must admit my ignorance on that.

@ Mr. Obvious
"Dank U, mijn vriendelijke buur uit Antwerpen...." (Antwerpen is a beautiful city, I like the Old Zoo especially....).
Indeed, very interesting topics around here. Probably also some interesting peeps.....Good to spend my lunch-time over here, and some of my spare time at home
You are right, Belgian beers are the best in the world imo (Duvel...Verboden Vrucht etc)......but promise me on thing....please try "Het Kanon" of Dutch Brewer Grolsch. And than talk to me again
Sharia4Belgium gone ? Happy to hear that, but the Islamic propaganda is getting stronger here every day, and also in Belgium

Next time I'm across the border, I vow I shall. (Or if I find it here sooner.) You have me curious.

Please do. But be careful, it has quite a high alcohol level (almost 12%), but the taste is incredibly nice

Your weak beers aside, I do love Amsterdam.
Welcome to the forums! Hope you like it.
"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
