I'm a recent convert to atheism (on Christmas eve, actually.)  I'd been agnostic for a while but the family I'm living with (Christians) wanted me to go to mass on Christmas eve.  So I did and uhhh... I thought 'These people are out of their minds!' and decided right then and there such a silly fairytale couldn't possibly be true.  Plus the priest as all being less then welcoming and whatnot, railing against 'non-believers' in a hate-filled gospel.  Jesus is the reason for the season and all who don't believe were basically evil.  I don't remember the details.  Anyway... sorry for the long rant, I just wanted to get my story out.   :verysad:

There is plenty of fun to be had, welcome.
Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.

Hi Leloko

Hope your cold gets better soon, snot and sneezing are not a good combination.

Welcome aboard.
