Tipttt

My name is Charles, I come from Quebec, Canada, I am a 17 years old guy.

I am fluent in french and english.

I am currently a student and completing my high school second grade. ( I'm supposed to have my diploma, but I am really bad at school.

I am a Nihilist ( I think nihilism fits me better than plain atheism )

I love pretty much every kind of music except for current mainstream music.

I don't play any instrument, but i would like to learn violin someday.

I prefer rational thinking over emotional thinking.

I am not the kind of person to "preach" atheism, but if anyone asks me, I'll give him/her the right answers.  ;)

I stopped being a believer by simply thinking aout for too long. I tried to hold on to my beliefs for a long time, but it just didn't make sense. So, I stopped believing and realised I was much happier this way.

And that pretty much sums me up.

I'm looking forward to know some new and interesting people here.

And, well, yeah. Thats pretty much it.

QuoteA table, a chair, a bowl of fruit and a violin; what else does a man need to be happy? - Albert Einstein

I think Albert has left out a thing or two, perhaps his cultural background denied him bacon, even so I think some things are missing.
I suppose those things and a glass of water would be OK for a pleasant afternoon.

Hi Charles!
Your story about beliefs sounds very much like mine. Except that you walked that path a lot earlier, cheers to that!

"In religion and politics people's beliefs and convictions are in almost every case gotten at second-hand, and without examination, from authorities who have not themselves examined the questions at issue but have taken them at second-hand from other non-examiners, whose opinions about them were not worth a brass farthing."

Hi Tip, welcom to HAF.

I love that you are very energetic in wanting to express yourself in your signature but can you shorten it to one or two quotes?  Long sigs tend to make it hard to read through the forum.  Thanks!

Always question all authorities because the authority you don't question is the most dangerous... except me, never question me.
