A Proper Re-introduction

A Proper Re-introduction
Hey Members of Atheist Forums,

It's been a while since I was last online,
I've had an account on this website for over 2 years.

Alot of things happened as you may have seen.
I have explored many religious views and I have genuinely stopped caring about religion.

It's not like I just thought one day, "Religion is stupid"
I mean, I did think that for a while, and I guess I do now (good news to most of y'all). 

I could say that I'm an "Optimistic Nihilist" now
I could say I'm still a Christian

But in the end I have stopped caring about religion itself, and the doctrines which most behold.
I don't find certain religions which are more philosophical than indoctrinated to be so bad, infact some have their points.

Buddhism: Suffering is caused by desire. etc etc

Eitherway, instead of rambling off I just wanted people to know my current state, and I also may or may not be more active again on this website.

I got myself a girlfriend 
I forgot about god all together
I am able to discern/differentiate the differences between love (if I even can truely understand that yet) and infatuation
I think you don't need anyone or any specific thing to enjoy life
I think you can find happiness anywhere
I also think I've found some sort of passion in my life
Writing, Literature, Music.

I just wanted people to know how I'm doing, idk, this is a community that matters to me so I felt like you all should know.
You guys did help me get through somethings too.

Honestly, we all might as well be dead at this point!

Did I mention I'm 14 yet too? I've lived for 2 years on this site!

Welcome back!

I'm kinda curious to know what made you change your mind since your last thread here, but I'm glad to see you doing great by yourself! Hope you'll be active here once more! Smile

welcome returnee !!
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Nice to hear from you young man.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

“The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existence. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery each day."

Hope you can stick around for a while.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
