Hello Everyone!

Hey everyone,
Well, I grew up in a religious family and was forced to go to church until i was a teen. I realized that praying was always a one conversation. And I felt that telepathically talking to a jewish zombie wasn't the way for me  . So after years of studying mythology and philosophy i came to the conclusion, god was just a fairy tale. And became an atheist and let me tall ya i get a lot of flack for it. So i decided to join this forum and be among my own kind.
A bit about me: I'm from America. I will be going to college for a degree in business soon. I currently don't work because i have enough funds that working insnt necessary at the moment. I enjoy reading, life, and most of all debates on the existence of god. Hope you accept my joining into your fold.

You can fold up a few of those dollar bills and send em my way. Welcome aboard.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Awesome. I'm glad you're joined. I've always wanted a pet.
If today you can take a thing like evolution and make it a crime to teach in the public schools, tomorrow you can make it a crime to teach it in the private schools and next year you can make it a crime to teach it to the hustings or in the church. At the next session you may ban books and the newspapers...
Ignorance and fanaticism are ever busy and need feeding. Always feeding and gloating for more. Today it is the public school teachers; tomorrow the private. The next day the preachers and the lecturers, the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, Your Honor, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until with flying banners and beating drums we are marching backward to the glorious ages of the sixteenth centry when bigots lighted fagots to burn the men who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind. ~Clarence Darrow, at the Scopes Monkey Trial, 1925
Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~Ronald Reagan

Uptight? Why would we be uptight? What are we, mormons?

You'll fit right in.
We do have a couple of fairy tale devotees stinking up the place but they are fun to shit on.
Welcome aboard.

 Hello from Virginia! I get flack for being a non-believer as well. You'll find the forums to be a great place to keep from losing your sanity. 
Don’t ask.
