Hi, My name is Scott. I'm from Texarkana, Tx. I have joint custody of a kick-ass 1 yr old named Ethan.
I enjoy books, music, tv, long walks on the beach, and blasphemy.

Hello everybody,

My name is Zach. I'm 28 years old, currently living in Savannah, GA. I am a writer and I produce a television show to pay the bills. One day I'll probably teach. I have lived in Atlanta, Savannah and New Orleans and I foster a dream of one day moving to Cambridge. I am sarcastic and caustic, but on the inside at my nougat center I believe in things like tolerance and positive reinforcement and bunnies.

I am always single, and I don't expect the internet to remedy that, but I will gladly stand in solidarity with those who are similarly single.

Hey look! There is a picture of me pretending to be a superhero. Maturity abounds.

Hello all,My name is Dara I am a 38 yr old widowed mom of 2 from NJ.I was raised Lutheran but realized very early on that I didnt believe what everyone else around me did,I continued to fake it for years or just stay quiet on the subject until my husband died and my daughter was diagnosed with a brain tumor and I was bombared with "god doesnt give you more than you can handle".."when god closes a door he opens another " blah blah blah...I finally spoke up and let everyone know exactly where I stand.Mt family and friends are ok with it but I still havent come out openly to aquaintences like other parents because I am affraid my kids will be left out of things.
My husband has been gone 3 years now and I am ready to move on but it is hard to find someone who isnt religious hoping to meet friends and maybe more on here :) As I mentioned I am a single mom ,I have 2 girls aged 4 & 7 I love movies (prefer indies but open to all genres) I love music (not rap and country though) I like browsing bookstores with a big coffee,going to the beach etc.

I try to compensate for the lack of community as a life long non-church goer too. My two kids are 3 and 8. I tried going to a Universal Unitarian fellowship. Their credo is "accept all" so there are a lot of atheist, agnostics there, but it still felt..... fake to me. I think we are in need of a decade of coming out for atheists. Then we can band together in public!

Hi there folks, stuck in the bible belt and woefully tired of losing people I love to religion or some other manner of fantastic thinking. Nice to find that a site like this is around and I look forward to meeting you all.

Hello, I'm Joe B. and I'm 29. Damn this is starting out to feel like AA. I'm Joe and I'm an evil atheist. Well I live in a small town in NW Arkansas where my kind is very rare. I'm viewed as a curiosity by my friends, who make it their mission to change me whenever they get drunk or stoned. I manage a small business and work about any job that comes my way. Over the last couple years I've also worked as a DJ and as a process server. I love discussing philosophy, current events, religion or damn near any other subject that pops into my head. I also love music. My ipod is filled with any type of music you can think of and I'm getting ready for Wakarusa, which has moved to my hometown this summer. I am also a full-time student and ex-Army.

Hello. I'm Brian. I'm 31, live in Modesto, CA. Never been married (and probably never will since I don't need the state to sanction my relationships) with no kids. I like music, movies, mostly city things. My interests include history, philosophy, MMA (UFC type events), science, etc.

I am not a typical woman..

I entered a competition to win a trip into space ... I didn't win, but at least I tried..

I have many interests: Watching all sports (especially cricket - I love it) but also F1, Rugby, Golf, Tennis, Boxing.. most sports, I also love history (especially military), eating out (I love all food: Fine cheeses, Indian (HOT), steak, offal.. you name it!), cycling, walking, swimming, gym, socialising - I love meeting people from all walks of life, reading, movies, travel (I've been to a few places in Europe (Rome, Paris, Lisbon, Amsterdam) & The USA, Tunisia, Egypt, Kenya and India), science fiction (and yes.. I like Star Trek :D), cooking (I make a mean Thai green curry), wine, beer, cryptic crosswords, chess, the sciences: love evolutionary science and genetics and all that stuff, theoretical, particle and astro physics (just as a layman I don't do equations for fun!), theatre, music, gin and tonic, animals and nature, general geekery D&D etc in my earlier days, computer games (still love Unreal Tournament GOTY! Love FPS, Also a big Tomb Raider fan and like Risk 2 (sad I know))and...Call of Duty 5 - totally addicted to playing on xbox live!, Real Ale..... Basiclally I'm interested in pretty much anything and everything really :) Always willing to learn about new things and pick up new hobbies and interests..

I don't go in for shopping, soap operas/reality t.v., shoes, chick flicks or buy women's magazines (The Wisden Cricketer, Empire & New Scientist for me..)

How would I describe myself? Witty, intelligent, outgoing, easy going, fun, energetic, I like to laugh and to make people laugh, punctual, reliable, loyal, loving, I can adapt: be part of a crowd or enjoy a one on one.

Sometimes I'm a party animal and sometimes just fancy a quiet night in or a day at the test match.. sat in the sun beer in hand..life doesn't get much better...

TV: I don't watch much tv but I like: House, The Wire, Californication, Whose Line Is It Anyway, Lost, Friends, Frasier, Curb Your Enthusiasm

Music: Boccerhini to Bowie... my tastes are too wide to list.

Sportsmen I admire: Roger Federer, Lewis Hamilton, Alastair Cook, Chris Hoy

Who I'd Invite to a dinner party: Barack Obama, Stephen Fry, Richard Dawkins, Sir David Attenborough, Michio Kaku

hi the Names Ryan and im here looking to find a female who shares my interest and maybe my musical habits. i'm 18 years young. and i start college in the fall for music. ive been a freethinker most of my life but growing up in the south you can only Imagen the resistance i get for speaking my mind. but non-the less i speak what i have to say. and i also enjoy playing music and have multiple music projects suck as my band (mars blue www.myspace.com/themarsblue). i'm not to complicated when i date i tend to look for personality other than looks. i love debate and i love a woman who can speak her own mind. ive never been married so therefore never been divorced lol.

i hope i interest somebody
