hi all,

here i go blabbing on about myself.. (yay)

I sometimes think im a little evangalical about atheism. I have a habbit of blowing my short fuse when anyone tries to talk about god and religion with me.
I grew up in an atheist family, so i never really had a religious upbringing. I think thats why i got so interested in the whole thing. Its always fascinated me. I read the bible and qu'ran a long time ago (in secret so my parents wouldn't find out) :rolleyes: and sometimes i will have another read of bits of it, usually when im arguing with someone on youtube, to prove a point. (dont pretend you dont do it)

I also have a grandmother who is very superstitious, and she has made me a paranoid nut about pretty much everything. (go figure)

So to sum me up.. I'm an atheist with superstitious tendancies, or as others like to put it, scitzophrenic.:p

lol, I like poking fun at theist 'logic' as well, tho I try and attack the concepts not the people, hopefully they think about it a little more.

I used to not have a lot of time for religion when someone spoke to me about it, simply tell them it was the Midi-Chlorians
(http://www.theforce.net/midichlorians/midi-what.asp) they would have a hard time arguing it was not .. now I tend to just go for base logic, and the paradox of a god in the first place.

It's all fun, same as discussing politics, 'cept the religious folk get all upside down about it if not really stable ..

Is that you in your avatar? If so, you look like a cross between Nigella Lawson and "Lila" on Dexter!
