Welcome to the forums, Kevin!

It's certainly a welcome release when you finally let it all go and can get on with truly enjoying life without the baggage.

Hi Kevin and welcome!

Yep, it's hard to hang onto the nonsense when you know that's what it is.

Welcome to the sweet relief of logic and reason.

I hope you enjoy the forums here

Gday Kevin!

Welcome to the forums. I never experienced belief - or as you accurately describe it . . . trying to believe.

Most of us here have the same answer to the question of belief, the interesting thing is that we can only compare notes on how we all arrived at it as we have all taken different routes to get here.

One thing that I think most of us would agree on (and there's not a lot of things that we all agree on by the way) is that it doesn't matter how long it takes someone to find the answer; the key to the challenge is having the guts to ask the question in the first place.

C U round!

Welcome Kevin, and I say that regardless of whether you turn out to be older or younger than me.

Atrax Robustus is of course wrong, because it will be obvious to the meanest intellect that we all agree on everything here .
Besides, asking the question is one third of the courage but the other two-thirds is found (or not) with the answer.
Well done on your arrival.

Oh - - - I totally agree Xeno ol' chum!
