Just signed up to the forum. I've been reading the posts for a few months now, but finally decied to join in the conversation. It's really comforting to see I'm not alone in my views of the world. REALLY comforting. Half of my family is extremely christian and reading the posts here is a tremendous outlet for me since I am still "in the closet." I am mostly interested in earth science, evolutionary biology, and astronomy. I am a big amirer of the late Carl Sagan, hence my screen name. Glad to be among friends!

Welcome! :D
Welcome, glad to have you on board! :) Now that you've checked us out for a couple months, it's a good thing you've decided to join us rather than running away in terror :D (just kidding!)
I'm looking forward to your posts! Enjoy!
Your screen name appeals to me. You have chosen well. I am a great admirer of the late doctor Sagan as well as several other distinguished astrophysicists...Kolb, Smoot, Tyson, Greene, Impey and many more.
I am also a newbie here so I may not be permitted to welcome you on behalf of the veteran members. I will say welcome on behalf of this freshman member.

Ah ye but running never does them any good, we always track them down.
Hello Carl Sagan, I heard you'd been ill, glad you're feeling better.
