You guys rock!

[EvolutionCalling]

I would just like to say how happy I am to be on this board!  The name does it justice, you guys are good spirited, happy atheists with a sense of humor.  I was posting on another board (that will go nameless) that had a very militant (perhaps?) tone to it.  There was a lot of conspiracy flinging going on and a lot of "SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE" screams without considering there is no such phrase in the Constitution.  Nothing was brought to the table in the form of constructive discussion.  Rational posts where ignored in favor of assumptions and I'd liken it to the Atheist version of Christian fundamentalism!  So, in other words, you guys rock!  Thanks for being awesome.

(where the crap did that *points down to ad* come from)

I blame laetusatheos for all of this board's successes, along with all of my fellow happy atheist cohorts.

Here here!!

I've been on a few other forums as well and they all seem so... I don't know, like you have to sit up straight when you type and triple check your posts to make sure someone won't catch you on something (which still happens a billion times). On one, you mention "god" and they say "define that 'god', what is this 'god' you speak of"?. It seems uptight to me.

HAF is like home. I'm not afraid to post something that may or may not make me look like an idiot, and I don't feel like things will be held against me because of my age either. The atmosphere is just different here, more comfortable.

Happy posting all!

I'm new to the site too and it seems to have seeped into my life a little too readily! I think this guy  roflol  out for a drink as he seems more fun.

I can't say I blame  :banna: like that.  I'd probably have the same reaction if I came across a dancing banana.  But  :brick: do that.  Sicko.
