Born in Montreal, but moved to Winnipeg in my early 20s and have lived here ever since.
I work in the medical transcription department of a hospital, but before that I was a computer technician. I've also worked in public accounting, commodities trading, and a couple of other industries.
When not at work, my main activity is playing woodwinds in concert bands. Saturday morning it's currently flute and alto saxophone, and on Wednesdays I play clarinet (which is my main instrument). I also write, do some gourmet cooking, and maintain a house and garden. Planning to retire sometime in the next 5 years and continue doing all of these activities, and also travel some more.
I'm here because I enjoy the community, and because I have strong feelings about the effects of religion on civil society.
What am I looking for? Knowledge. Lifelong learning, and challenging my own weaknesses.
Both parents deceased. My dad worked in aerospace electronics, and IIRC before marriage my mom worked in a seniors' home. Younger brother is a geneticist and microbiologist. My daughter is a fantasy artist.
No pets currently, but I've had cats (most recently, from 1994 through 2016). I maxed out at 9 cats, including a mama cat and all 5 of her kittens, who became my Dark Legion. The last of the kittens died last year at age 14.

What kinds of instruments?
Is the word "instrument" a really good word in today's climate of politicians and celebrities getting caught with their pants down?

I'm a programmer. Computer Science graduate.
In my region, religion became a tool of control. Twisted and forged to suit different needs; I found that it became subject to peoples' opinions and interests. But when I studied the source; I found that it's pretty pure. So I want to preach that, also if my studies are wrong; they will be disproved here. So I'm testing it here too.
In life, I want personal peace.
I love cats. I have 2. I wish to own an ocelot
Nice to meet you
While I may never convince you that Allah isn't real, anymore than I have a chance at convincing Catholic Lady Jesus is fiction. I do admire your braveness living in that region doing what you do challenging your own.
I only hope you stay safe and live a long life. I need theists to bitch at and whine about. I don't mean oppress or kill, but I do need to release my stress by pulling my hair out.
You have more balls than I do. Not in that your god exists, but in that you challenge your own region's thinking.
I wont lie, I admit I have it easier as an atheist living in the west. But I do not envy any liberal Muslim or liberal Christian or liberal Jew living in an oppressive state. We'd all have a problem if we were atheists, Muslims, Jews, or Christians living in North Korea too.
But man, I like you. I like CL too. I just don't think either of you need a deity to worship. But, if you never leave it, I still need a verbal ONLY platform to vent.
And I am still mad at you for not teaching me how to make all those neat toys all Muslims make.
PS........ I love cats too. My best friend is my cat.
Thank you Brian. It really means a lot to me to know that at least my voice is being heard somewhere.
Hey; nobody knows what you would do if you were in my shoes. Maybe you would've began a revolution or gave the oppressing regime more hell.
I hide my face and don't show it but when I feel a little bit safe; so I'm a big coward still
Many theists don't bite. I wish that me and CL , and pretty much most theists here are eliminating this disgusting image that organization like ISIS and the KKK are drawing, and tainting the rest with.
What toy would you like to learn about ? 2 things I know you will so regret not having in the U.S: local Shawerma & Kebab

KA, animated gifs get added with the img tags, not vid tags. Not all animate though.
(My story)
look at my avatar ...
I am one of 147 brothers and sisters (mum got pregnant too many times to count!)
I was also shagging at 6 months old. We all love shagging! No TV in rabbitland! I think I've got at least 2,500 kids somewhere!
I love chewing the same spinach leaf over and over and over!
I poop lots of easter eggs but they don't taste like chocolate!
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

Not as vicious as Baboo, I wish for a more...depressed one without tendency to train their claws on me.
