1. No god has ever murdered anyone, at any time, in any place.
2. Yes.
3. That would depend on the particular humans in question.

Well I hope this is the right place to make my presence known so here goes.
Me? I'm 76 today, married (for ever it feels!) with one sprog (son) and one granddaughter. My given name is Roger, Rog for short. Why my username? 'Cos I like Albatrosses!
We live in Norfolk on the edge of a village in an Edwardian villa (smallish!) having moved here in 1990 from Epping. My wife has never been gainfully employed since we married in 1976. For us it worked.
Much of our married life I've worked overseas, typically 4 - 6 weeks "in country" followed by 1 week back home.
And a HARD Atheist.
I'm not a forum/message board virgin but got hacked off from members of the last one by people telling me all sorts of things not least that I was hell bound. Trying to explain that hell was actually a Christian invention ---- well it didn't go down well and things became really nasty so it was a case of "bye guys".
Pets? Sadly none. In our physical health these days we would struggle to take care of a garden worm!
Car? I now leave that to my wife. I'm not safe on the road because of paralysis.
In an attempt to sum me up? I guess boring old fart would be close.
But most definitely a curmudgeon!

Hello new entity. Can I interest you in creating an introduction thread? I see that you've told us quite a bit but some of us would like to officially greet you.

I like your name. My grandfather's deep sea fishing boats were part of the Albatross fishing fleet.

Thanks guys! I sincerely hope that I don't hack anyone off, apart from anything else I'm finding navigating around the forum a tad difficult, I think because of unfamiliarity or maybe 'cos I'm thick! Any let's see how things go.
