Iam deconverted from devout christianity to atheism. Darwinism makes a lot more sense than intelligent design and for a while I struggled with not believing in god and being convinced that I was damned to hell for questioning my faith. I hope to learn more about evolution and the science behind it and I just want a place were I'm not preached at and not constantly beiing told that iam going to hell because I'm a non believer.
I tend to read more than I post so you'll mostly see me lurking around the boards rather than posting.

Welcome Emancipated.

BTW, the name "Eman" that some of you mentioned sounds very similar to the word "iman,", or sometimes spelt "emaan," which basically means "faith" in Arabic. Tongue

Welcome Eman.

Regarding Hell. Even christians think that OTHER christians are going to hell. Those dipshits can't even agree with each other. In fact, if you want to get technical - we're all going to some version of Hell, because there's always going to be some fucking group out there that disagrees with every other group. Ridiculous nonsense.


Don't worry 'bout Hell ... it's not spendin any time worrying about you. Big Grin

Hey Em! Too bad if you're gonna mostly lurk. Hopefully you'll change your mind. Smile
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
