Hello, my name is Deidre...and I post also on another atheist forum. I've noticed this site last year, and thought why not join it, too. :) I was raised in a Christian home and spent most of my adult life catering to the religion. I don't judge anyone who chooses to remain in it, but after MUCH research and soul searching, decided that I'm more comfortable being an Agnostic. I've chosen this line of 'belief,' because I don't believe any of us knows for sure, logically or otherwise, if a Deity exists. Agnosticism is often a misunderstood position, so if you have any questions, I'd be happy to answer them. I used to think completely differently about Agnosticism until the path naturally led me to it.

Look forward to discussing things here, and supporting anyone who needs it.

Yay, a girl!

Hi Dierdre. Nice to meet you.
A cynical habit of thought and speech, a readiness to criticise work which the critic himself never tries to perform, an intellectual aloofness which will not accept contact with life’s realities â€" all these are marks, not as the possessor would fain to think, of superiority but of weakness. -TR

Hi, I'm Stromboli but you can call me Bryce. I enjoy the smell of grass after it rains and long walks on the beach with my rescue Corgi/Norwegian Otter Hound mix, Merkyn.  :-D
