To start off, I'm an atheist, pansexual African American (by the truest definition: my parents are African) expatriate living in Istanbul.
Right, so, it feels weird to be on a forum again after so long. I used to be on about twenty when I was fifteen or something and, though I didn't realize it until now, loved it. I love sharing ideas with like-minded and otherwise-minded people alike. So I guess I'm excited to be on Happy Atheists. Hope I enjoy myself! :]
Welcome to the forum! Being around like-minded people defiantly has its benefits. ;D

Me too.
I have great memories of my time on an old Xian board arguing the non-existence of god with the faithful, making new friends and generally having a good time. It's been many years and I finally decided to try it again.
Wow I'm not the newest one anymore. I can comfortably say welcome.

I like your username and someday I would love to visit Istanbul.
Istanbul! And I just finally finished playing Assassin's Creed Revelations ;D
Welcome!

Sounds like you've had an interesting life so far -- so explain about Istanbul.

Ah cool, until now I didn't have one such as you amongst my acquaintances.

I am genuinely curious. I had never heard of Istanbul before I read you're post. I would like to hear more about it. :)
