About Me
I'm a teenager who was born in a christain family. but at the age of 15 i began to doubt the existence of god after christains were killed in communal riots in Orissa state of India. so i began to think seriously about god and religion and finally came to the conclusion that supernatural forces do not exist. I am now an atheist, rationalist and a secular humanist.

My friend Selwin (he's still in Texas) I don't think he is atheist but he is a very open minded guy. My husband is the same way.

Hi, I live in America and have been to Goa twice and stayed for 4 weeks the first time and 6 weeks the second time. I stayed in Quepem at my mother in law's house and sometimes another relative's house in Donapaula.

Welcome to the Atheist Nexus, Joel. It took me much longer to realize that religion was all smoke and mirrors. Ah well, what can I say, I'm S-L-O-W :)

Hello and welcome to this great meeting place
where religion is recognised for the superstition and people-control fraud that it is and for its inexcusable 2000 years of oppressing women
--- and that God and gods are merely fictions inside human heads.

Terry Meaden
founder of the busy group "ORIGINS: Universe, Life, Earth, Humans, Religion, Evolution, Darwin..." with its 250 discussion topics.
