Hi everyone. I’m new. I congratulate you for this great forum.
I’m an atheist, very agile in my native language â€"Spanish- but not so sure to have the same muscles in English. Even though, it’s nice to add one more voice.

Buenos dias, Lexx. Bienvenido a forum. This gringo has now exhausted his Spanish.

Hi, Lexx - welcome to the forum. I was an exchange student to Venezuela back in 1996-97. I lived there for a year and learned quite a bit of Spanish, although I'm from South Florida and get plenty of practice. Anyway, glad to have you.

Thank you for the warm welcome guys! I did the Spanish language clarification cause I know I will sometimes sound strange, so to speak. And as the level of this forum is really a qualified one â€"no so much street lingo here- I know I’ll have to take care of what I say, jus for the sake of a good understanding.
By the way, this forum is very well organized. The themes are properly ordered. No chaos theory here. (Just a joke).

Welcome, Lexxvs! You've stumbled upon a great little forum here, and I hope you enjoy your stay.
And yeah, you won't get any guff from me about being a non-native English speaker; I'm practically married to one!
Again, good to have you!

Thank you again guys, Asmodean, Curiosityandthecat. Yes, "compadre" means something like that, but as I’m at Argentina I’m not so much into the Mexican use of Spanish, :idea: .

Hi Lexxvs - pleased to meet you.
No worries about your English - seems fine to me so far.
We're a pretty friendly group (unless someone's spouting "rot in hell" nonsense!)
Cheers,
JoeActor

Lexxvs, you have substantially better literary skills than the vast majority of english-writing people on the internet.

Hey Lex, welcome! I think that it's pretty evident by the other posts that you have nothing to worry about. Atheists speak the same language anyway - reason.
