hey all,

I'm Oonah, I'm a graphic designer / digital artist from Belgium.
I'm 30 years young (exact, today is my birthday, hihi)
I live in a city called Antwerp, together with my man and two cats.
My parents are both atheists, I did went to a catholic school some years, it was across the street, but I don't have any trauma's from it, I had a good time and I'm still an atheist. My parents let us find out for ourselves, but around the same time I suspected my dad was impersonating santa claus, I started to doubt what my teacher said in school.
My man has more gnostic views, he believes heaven to be a place that can be found in yourself, I can live with that.
I don't know a lot of religious people, (apart from on the internet) where I live its rare to meet someone that goes to church every week (exept from the large Ortodox Jewish community we have here in Antwerp). I have some Muslim friends, but even they are rather laid back.
But I enjoy discussing and reading about religion, I find it fascinating.
English is not my native language, but I can express myself reasonably well in it, I hope you can forgive my grammar or vocabulary mistakes. Corrections are always welcome.

Kind regards,
Oonah.

Yes, welcome! I dabble in graphic design, myself, though I'm far from good enough to make a living at it.

Hope you enjoy the little community we have set up here!

Well I'm a bit late with the intro but "Hello." I'm just another atheist.

Philosophy is an interest of mine so I thought I would experiment with this site.
