Hi to anyone reading this!
I am Napoleon and am a complete n00b to this forum thing so i dont quite know what to say. I have been an atheist/agnostic ever since I was capable of rational thought, this is mainly because rational thought would never lead me to believe any type of religious scripture or ramblings.
I've decided to enter this forum and try to discuss with like minded people about certain aspects of religion, and how to deal with people who want to debate on a variety of topics. As mentioned I really have no idea what i'm doing and am kind of looking at pointers at how to get into some discussions, any help would be appreciated
That's all I can think of writing, I hope to have some meaningful discussions with some of you guys soon! thanks for reading!

welcome.
I usually don't care about introduction threads but I had to ask about the number in your name.
Whats up with the use of 666?
The atheists that I know won't have anything to do with that number ... cause it has a lot of religious meaning.
I'm not saying you shouldn't use it ... I'm truly just curious. Most atheists don't want to be associated with the Devil any more than they do with God.
(again ... just curious, I'm not implying that you are in the wrong)

You are not Napoleon... Napoleon was the greatest general/leader to ever grace France. Tall man. Highly doubt you are either so tall or so effective militarily
That being said, you can well claim yourself to be a napoleon. Not unlike how if someone were to name their child 'Aerzia', the child would not be Aerzia, but an aerzia.

Out of interest... why did you choose this forum? Did you not like the community at another forum? Were we the first result of your google search? Have you been secretly stalking me from afar for a year?
You're doing fine... just so long as you don't start stuttering: you don't have to worry about a psychotic transsexual stealing your left ankle

You came from stupid to sentient and 'know' something you don't yet understand doesn't require rational thought?

Fine fine... he's taller than me: therefore he is tall.

Welcome to freedom of thought. Don't worry bro, i usually just say anything that comes to mind. It's nice to not have restrictions on life but i don't think athiest means satan worshiper(666).
Live every day as if already dead, that way you're not disappointed when you are.
