Hello all I'm new to this forum and decided that it would be a good idea to hear straight from the horse's mouth about atheism. So I thought this would be a good place to start.

Welcome!

Is there something specific you want to know..? Atheists are a varied bunch, often unified by nothing except our lack of a belief in gods, but we can probably satisfy your curiosity to a degree.

Hellos and Welcome! Hopefully all of your questions can be answered here, but be warned, we here at HAF are a strange bunch. ;)

Hello and welcome to HAF, whitewater. I'm sure the membership here will try to satisfy your curiosity, though some of the issues you may be interested in exploring will have to wait until you've made 10 posts and have graduated from the "Getting to Know You" section.

I hope you enjoy your time reading and posting here.

No, but what if a question is, in fact, homosexual..? Would that not require a homosexual answer?

Then I guess it is fine. Although, I've gotten straight answers to gay questions before... Then again, that might be why I am the way I am...

For the record, if I say "gay", I mean "gay", not "lame" or "shitty" or, in fact, anything else. That would be mildly discriminatory and homosexuals have done The Asmo far less ill than many other groups of people, so he does not discriminate against them.

Yay! I love my gay friends so I can be extremely over protective of gays in general. I've seen what they can go through. It ain't fun.
