Please consider a group for socializing, where we talk about whatever's on our minds, Hang With Friends. :D You might feel more at home.

Reality Activist said… - Thank you for being here. You are a gem.
I don't agree with your all of your viewpoint on atheism vs agnosticism.

Reality confirms what we know and what we don't.
