I joined thinking it was too good to be true. But, actually, it's not. Of course I'm still waiting for helicopters with flood lights to descend on me at midnight and drag my ass of to Geronimo Bay or somewhere for 'enhanced interrogation.' Something to look forward to.

The internet

Facebook wasn't cutting it any more, and I was looking for intellectual stimulation. I found some here.

I thought I would try this site to see if there are any interesting people with ideas and information. So far so good. I am married happily. So far so good.

It was in the Atheists (Spanish) group in my FB

Whenever I'm too overwhelmed by the idgits on FB and their woo - I come here. And usually don't get called ridiculous names for having an opinion. (One more "Snowflake" comment,,,, I mean really?).
We actually have discourse on varied subjects - can disagree and not start with the labeling and name calling. Kind of awesome.

I just came for the beer and babes.

Saw the Facebook ad and thought I'd give it a try. Their ad targeting algorithm must've determined this was a good fit.????

Tired of traditional dating sites-looking for intelligent conversation and diversity.

My handler at the NSA asked me to check out the dangerous radical free-thinkers on the site.

Here for community, and exchange of ideas. Thinking about some of the posts has also helped me clarify my own thoughts and opinions on issues I may not have given a lot of attention to before.

I am just so sick of Christianity dividing people. I was recently with a Christian woman who I cared about very much, and she claimed that she cared about me. We had an amazing relationship. She treated me very well, other than the fact that she said she could never be with me long term because I wasn't a Christian. I could not comprehend how she could say she love me but yet deny that love in favor of a fake being.

curiosity

A much needed outlet. Saw the ad on Facebook for quite a while. Finally came over.

I live in the bible belt, where xtianity is rampant. I came here to enjoy intelligent discussions with people who are not sheepish enough to ascribe any original thought to geeziz.

Always seeking people to discuss interesting ideas with. As you can probably imagine, some communities are better than others.

Mostly fear of dying alone.

Saw your question

I had recently joined two different MK (missionary kid) forums to swap stories of our adventures growing up overseas, but kept getting attacked whenever I mentioned LGBTQ issues or science - even in the "Liberal Mks" forum.

Within a month I was fed up with the constant religious blather, and one of my Morehead University prof colleagues posted this link on Facebook.

What brought me to click on your question was your lovely smile What brought me to this website was.... god told me to just kidding. It looked like fun
