Greetings from wine country
Hello, all. I finally got around to joining AN so I feel it's appropriate to jump right in.
I'm Cory, a 22 year old college student living in upstate NY. I'm fairly new to the atheist scene, as I finally realized that's what I was in the last year or so. Since then, I've taken a huge interest in the topic and much of what that entails. I have my own small youtube channel where I occasionally talk about things like religion and civil rights, and just in general I'm very into the videos and the blogs, etc.
I've been sort of going through the motions with college, and I've been thinking it's time for a change - to biology. Been an interest of mine for quite some time.
I live in a largely conservative area, and grew up in a pretty nutty catholic family, but I still managed to have thoughts, so that's alright. I just don't have many like minded people to talk to around here, so i'm glad for places like this and youtube.
Anyway, that's my two cents. Glad to be here.

Interesting. I had known for quite some time that the bible was nonsense, and I guess I could have considered myself deist for a while.
One day I just realized I was an atheist thanks to a question my best friend asked me. Since then, i've had a growing interest in science, especially biology.

Did anyone read the comments below the You Tube version? they were almost all like, "Yeah, thank the lard for sending a ghastly tornado to kill more than 50…"
The Flying Atheist commented on Ruth Anthony-Gardner's group Hang With Friends"Great clip, Tony. People need to realize that not everybody superfluously and automatically thanks god in a time of crisis. Maybe he's learned a lesson and become a smarter man. "
Natalie A Sera commented on Dallas the Phallus's group LINGUAPHILES & SESQUIPEDALIANS"And then, just to confuse things, there's polymath, which is from the Greek poly = much and manthanein = to learn.
