I am completely open and honest about my atheism, my sex life, my politics, and my bowel movements.....guardedly.....been around long enough to know that when enough people know enough about you...your going to find some that will try to hurt you......some for your own good....with this group I find like-minded people concerning religion, and I can be open and honest, and only lie occasionally about other things...a really fun place for me. Be good to yourself, and good luck

YAY! Another ATLANTA atheist! I've been trying to explain how pervasive religion is in every aspect of culture down here, and how many people feel comfortable enough to openly ridicule us when they encounter us.

But I fly my heathen flag with pride every single day.

Bring. It. On. ?

We should get a coffee sometime - it would be nice to be able to speak openly with someone for a change. ?

Oh, and welcome!

I also grew up Catholic and went through 12 years of Catholic school. I get annoyed with people who try to convert me because I had religion stuffed down my throat for so many years. Also, the Catholic church is mysogynist. I don't know about you but it took me a long time to believe in myself after being told from birth that I was the cause of sin in the world because I'm female,

You have found the site to unburden yourself from the worlds religious fanatics. Welcome. When they start ranting just think of them being naked on the toilet or having sex. Hopefully this will make it more bearable.

Welcome aboard.

I have a somewhat different reaction when theists attempt to promote their faith (belief without evidence) over facts. I am an open atheist (not a theist) and anti-theist (openly criticize the ill affects of religion). Depending on my mood, I will usually engage them with a suitcase full of arguments that reveal the dishonesty of their position. My motivation for this response is I actually care about the health of society and find the dishonest faith (believe what you want) over reality a potentially devastating position for society. I've seen many theists loose much following the falsehoods asserted by theistic leaders. The worst loss that was a young woman. Her friends found her suicide note under her hanging body. It read, "I've killed myself so I can live forever with Jesus and my dead father in heaven."

Welcome, Willkommen, Bienvenue

Welcome to our den of heathens.

Welcome to the site. It is a fun place where you can be yourself and enjoy some pretty wacky and lovely people.

Welcome to the asylum. Enjoy your stay.

There are many here among us that could have written your bio. So welcome, you're going to meet some friends here but the best ones will be 1000 miles away.

Seems pretty good to me.
