Alright, I suppose I should break the ice, as it were. My name is Jonathon Uriah. I come from Oklahoma, and as fate would have it I was raised (force fed) christian doctrine my entire life. Pentecostal, Assembly of God, Nazarene, Church of Christ and finally Southern Gospel. My father and 2 of my grand fathers were/are ordained ministers, and pretty much all of my family are followers of christ....except me. And so here I am, seeking solitude on a forum of like-minded individuals. I've been reading some of the posts and I enjoy the insight. Thank you, and thanks for having me

Philosophy is questions that may never be answered. Religion is answers that may never be questioned.

Hi and welcome to HAF, JuggernautJon. X-Men fan?
The world's what you create.

JuggernautJon

haha, yes. I must admit it. I have the Juggernaut tattooed on the inside of my right biceps. Also serves a metaphorically purpose, although corny.

Hi Jonathon

Welcome to Happy Atheists, I hope you find the relative peace and quiet you are looking for but don't be too quiet or we won't know you're here! :D

Ehh, lol...his "power" is able to "run through anything"...so, I, myself can go through anything that comes at me....kind of thing? Haha, does that make sense?

And thanks for the welcome! I'll try not to be too quiet, but I'm not sure I can match wits with a lot of you! Haha. I do like discussing and learning different perspectives on things, though

Lol could b just that. Just figured I'd throw that out there just in case.  I know that the church my dad attends now play Southern Gospel style quartet music...and it induces ear bleeding for me.
