Hi I'm Lawrence.
I live in Lincoln, Nebraska.
I attend the University of Nebraska, at Lincoln.
I am studying Russian language as a major.
I'm atheist, and sick of people looking down at me for it.
Hi Walker
Everybody deserves their own introduction thread ;D
Welcome to HAF
Regards
Chris

Ohhhhhhh, the creation of this welcome thread is god like, it was a mere post and now it is a thread.
Such a benevolent use of power, praise with great praise.
Are you to going to smite anyone soon?
Hello Walker
I think walking is almost always good.
Hello and welcome to HAF, Walker88. I knew a young fellow whose first name was Walker; his father was a professional photographer and had named him after Walker Evans (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walker_Evans). I think it's a pretty cool name.
I know very little Russian myself, though I've known some Russian immigrants over the years, and enjoy the sound of the Russian language.
It's not surprising, living in Nebraska, that you feel looked down upon for your atheism, but one would hope that in a university, even in Nebraska, you would be able to find some kindred spirits.
I hope you enjoy your time reading and posting here. (https://www.happyatheistforum.com/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg830.imageshack.us%2Fimg830%2F860%2Fsmilew.gif&hash=8238eab24d16418eb1c8cd60d971239ab1363c74)
Hi Walker88
Welcome!

Atheist? <shock, horror>
Are you sure you've come to the right place?
Atheism is frowned upon here.
No Magic Pudding, I don't believe I will be smiting anytime soon... I'm actually pretty much for peaceful action, and I don't stand for self-contradiction, well, when I can help it.
Welcome to the forum, Walker. My minor was Russian from my first go 'round in education back during the Cold War. I stunk at it. Hope you do well with it.
добро пожаловать!
I took a little Russian in University, I really loved it :) My dream is to go to St.Petersburg some day.

I didn't mean to suggest you'd be smiting anyone.
I could be mistaken but I saw someone's 1st post in someone else's intro, I thought tank may have moved it into its own thread, I could well be mistaken in this. Apologies.

TMP you're quite right W88 tagged onto somebody elses intro' so I split that post out and started this thread with it as everybody should have their own introduction ;D
Hey Lawrence. Re: the people who look down on you for being an atheist. Fuck them.
I know a little about Russian hands and Roman fingers, but I don't think all that has anything to do with language.
Glad to know you and Cheers!
Hello Lawrence. I'm new here too. :)
