Hello. New here. I didn't realize though until I was signing up that some use this site to meet other people. Was it the aspect of potentially meeting someone who is also a fellow atheist/agnostic that attracted you here, or was it just the prospect of having a community like this where you could feel comfortable talking?
I was an atheist and still agree with them that there isn’t any proof of a god. The agnostic side of me is just open to the idea that one day there might be proof. Now it’s unlikely that it will be proven that a teapot is in orbit and some say that’s about what proving the existence god would be like. But what if it isn’t really a teapot in orbit but more like an asteroid which would be more likely? What if part of the problem is that religions attach really fantastical ideas to ‘creators’ which severely limit the likelihood of them existing? My view of a creator would be as simple as it gets. It would be the thing that triggered the Big Bang and nothing more. Now we’re just getting into semantics but I’m okay with that. A person could call the thing that triggered the Big Bang Bob Saget and that would be okay with me.
I come here for the discussions mainly though. Agnostic.com is a dating site the way 4chan is an image board.
I searched "Atheist Dating" and this popped up lol
This place advertises itself as a dating site and that's why I initially came. I quickly realized, however, that it is much more than that. It's a real community of non-believers/freethinkers. The site has grown significantly (but surprisingly is still rather small considering the # of non-believers/agnostics out there.) and now has some of the negative aspects of larger social media (trolls, general assholes, LOL!), but for the most part, you'll find intelligent, articulate, compassionate people here who get a long well.
Hi, Wenepai, and welcome to the website!
By the way, this website has a bit of a learning curve, so here's some info, in case you need it.
For members who are open to dating, certain thumbnails and profiles have a heart symbol on them with a percentage. This identifies which members are open to dating, and the percent shows approximately how compatible others are with them.
You gain website points by answering all the profile questions and writing a bio, which also earns website points, and helps other members get to know you.
Commenting on posts and writing your own posts earns more points. At level two you can private message people, and at level eight you get an agnostic T-shirt.
If you want to date, the website uses profile algorithms to find member matches, so the more details one includes, the better the match.
Many people prefer to see a written profile talking about interests, hobbies, and backgrounds that can be quickly perused to find others with similar interests..
In case you didn't know yet, to find members near you, click on the "Browse" button at the top of the page, then on "Members," and enter your preferred search parameters.
Click on the "Discuss" button, then "Nearby" to find members near you also.
Or click on the "About" button at the top left of the page to find links to FAQ or the website tutorial.
Points are now being given to level 3+ members who chat. You can see chat rooms on the group main page
