Hi! I am Omer Sharif and I am an Athiest

[osheriff]

Hello!

I am from Pakistan. Being involved in science and engineering I have never been religious. After close examination of Quran I realized it had scientific errors and various inaccuracies, it cannot be the word of a divine creator. I'm glad as I was able to break free from the mental prison and call myself a proud Atheist.

Hi, osheriff.

This is a message sent to all who find their way to these forums.

We like people, and we like facts too!

We're friendly but we're skeptical, and if somebody calls for proof, it's not an accusation. Only the strong ideas thrive here: we try to respect people. (We do not tolerate personal abuse.)

You may already have visited these other handy places:
* New Member Information
* Welcome from AFA president
* For those interested in learning, I recommend the Atheism Resource Thread maintained by Fearless.
* And a quick look at our reserved spot for belief-based discussion, Fantasy Island, includes The Great Big List, a sort-of "things we've seen before" for those of faith, and general rules of argument for the forum.

If you've got questions, please ask. Moderators have red name tags, but many of our friendly people may have the answers you need.

Enjoy the forums. We hope to see plenty from you in discussions.

Have fun.

Hi Omer, Welcome to the forums. Hope you enjoy your stay. I expect a certain Crocodile might sympathise with your views on the Quran also.

Sorry, can't help but ask ... is your name is inspired by Omar Sharif at all? Do you get asked that much?

Welcome, always nice to hear more from people who are familiar with fallacies of the lesser known (to me at least) faiths

Thank You, All for such a warm welcome!

I feel as if I know you already. As if you are already my friends.

Atheism 'the lack of belief in god' is the fastest growing opinion in the world today. It is spreading faster than any religion on Earth. It may be difficult to believe but Pakistan also has plenty of Atheists. We are a small community of mostly young people who communicate over the internet and arrange meetings. Our community 'Pakistani Atheist and Agnostics' is even recognized by Atheist Alliance International.

Hoping to learn from you all. Once again Thank You All!!!

Hi Omer It's great to know that atheism is alive in Pakistan.
