How do you do chaps!

How do you do chaps!
I'm Dan, I live in Manchester, UK. I've been a humanist for as long as I can remember.

I remember being bored and patronised during school sermons. I got angry at those annoying "Jesus saves" billboards. I've worked in charities since I was 18 and I'm increasingly annoyed by fanatical Christians portraying athesits as immoral and empty.

I'm horrified to have met 2 (very pleasant) young earthers in recent years and that makes me want to be more active as a humanist.

The nicest people I've met are a mix of liberal believers and non believers.

Women call me the tripod sex god, men call me a liar.

Hi and welcome!
HuhA man is born to a virgin mother, lives, dies, comes alive again and then disappears into the clouds to become his Dad. How likely is that?

Thanks chaps. A pleasure to be here spouting my own brand of opinionated rubbish! It's always cool to see so many free thinkers in one place!
Happiness is all that's important. What makes me happiest is making my loved ones happy.

Hey there... I think humanism is the way to go. I was prompted to look into it by Kurt Vonnergut Jr. Before reading all his books I'd never heard of humanism. I realize he wasn't really active, but just honorary president of some humanist association. and now dead. but I'm sure he's in heaven now Wink Do yourself a favor and check out some of his books if you haven't already. Cat's Cradle or Player Piano are great famous ones. welcome aboard; I hope there's some cool action to get in on. I'm hoping for some intelligent, well-informed believers to debate with. apologies to any of those I overlooked on here.
