It's quite refreshing to stumble upon an online community of individuals who do NOT hold ignorance and fear as virtues.  It is also nice to see that people everywhere are starting to notice that a life without fear is a life well spent. For too long i have seen two extremes, the religious bible-pounding automatons who I  am continually forced to interact with on an uncomfortable level, and the reactionary, attention-addicted loudmouths who see atheism as the hip new fad and never actually take one moment to consider what they actually believe. I don't especially care if anyone ends up reading this, I'm just relieved that this cloud of conservative religion surrounding my life is cleared for a few moments.
