Happy Atheist Forum

I'm Lila, I'm a university student from England. I'm happy to be here, and I hope to get to know you all.   I'm an atheist, and have been ever since I can remember.

Hi Lila,

Me and Improbable are both UK based ... it sounds like you're in the US right now though?

Welcome to the forum.

Oh, no I'm in England right now.

Cool .. so which Uni? I only ask because my daughter is at Uni too.

Only about 30 or 40 miles from my daughter (Sheffield Uni) ... cool

Welcome! It's always good to see our brothers and sisters from the UK joining us here.

I'm sure you'll enjoy! What are you studying? Tell us a bit more about yourself and really become part of the community.  

Hiya Lila!  

Don't be shy, come on in.  We have coffee, cookies, and nice, hot SACRILEGE.

Err, I mean . . . towels . . . yes.

Hi Lila... welcome!  HOw lucky you are to have been an atheist for so long.  Really makes me wish I'd been born in Europe.  <sigh>

I'm studying International Relations. It's just a focused kind of politics, really.  Err, as for more about me- I love reading. Half the time my room looks like a book explosion. I'm a symphonic metal fan (although I don't really like death grunts, so Within Temptation and Nightwish are my thing). I also get very irritated with creationism, subjugation of women, "demons", "Satan is doing this to me", and all other things of that kind of rabid fundamentalism.

From England? That's awesome! Welcome to the forum, as you can probably tell,it's pretty laid back.

So bands like Nightwish (maybe?) and Epica? I quite like those too (I'm relatively new to metal anyway, was soul & dance once) and I like those (some of the Nordic metal bands (for lack of a better name) are great.

Agree. European bands are very underrated.

This place is great. I'm also from the uk (cambridge) and have found this site to be hugely friendly and fiercely academic. There are some very intelligent people here  

I'm pretty sure you'll have a good time.
