Hi from a newbie here
August 9, 2022 at 3:38 am
Hey Everybody.
Just joined to say Hi and looking forward to discussing with you all about anything and everything related to religious & non-religious and philosophical discussion.
I'm a retired 65 year old female who has been pondering the wonder of sentient self-aware entities, and the mystery of existence that is life all my life.
I'm from England in the UK.
I have no beliefs related to abstract concepts such as God or anything of a spiritual nature, but I am open to having my mind changed.

Welcome to the Forum, TrueNorth. Does your name imply that you're from the north of England? I only ask because I got in a tremendous about of trouble in Yorkshire during my misspent youth.

Welcome!
Loved Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy movie, but, heard that the TV series is much better.
