How do you do chaps!
February 6, 2009 at 10:26 am
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.

Kinda funny that I'd be an activist, I don't even like to change my socks..... Irrelevant, Welcome to the forums!

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.

Yeah, I was always a humanist, long before I knew the term. I've read the Sirens of Titan by Kurt Vonnergut I'll keep an out for the others!
