Hey everyone,
I'm Matt Parsons, as you surely have surmised from my name. I'm an atheist since my preteen years, when I shed belief in religion along with other childhood myths. Much to my parent's dismay, who fully hoped I'd retain the preferred beliefs. A story I'm sure you've all heard or lived.
A little about myself, I'm currently attending the University of Georgia with the intention of going to pharmacy school. I'm a musician and composer, primarily writing symphonic melodic metal as well as neoclassical/modern symphonic music. I love reading about science of any variety, and I enjoy a good debate, either genuine or playing Devil's Advocate.
I was drawn here by the Atheist Image Dump... This place seemed like it had a good sense of humor, so I jumped on board.
Anyway, I'll lurk around a bit before posting too much. Thanks for setting up a forum like this!

Hey Matt, welcome to the forum. I'm glad you like it.
