Yes, I have arrived... If you know me, I'm offically afraid... Very afraid... Lol, j/k. But, no, really. My name is Mandi, and I'm what you'd call a n00b, or new person, to atheism. I literally made the change two days ago, and I'm just now figuring out that in Nietzsches words -man, I cannot spell his name!-God is dead. Lol, guess that does hold true... I went around looking at a couple of religions and realized that none of them offered what I wanted... So, I said, screw it and after lying in bed wondering what was going to happen to me, I realized that I was an atheist... I know, I come to weird realizations. Bite me. Later, ya'll! Mandi

Welcome to the board, kaeis! It wasn't that long ago that I was in your shoes (as a newbie to atheism). You can read more about me here. I hope you can find here what I found when I first came to MSN's Atheism & Freethought group (an old MSN group that migrated to Atheists Anonymous two years ago). I haven't read anything by Friedrich Nietzsche yet but I have heard of the name. Maybe you could share some of your thoughts on Nietzsche in our Book Reviews section. I fixed the color tags in your post above. If you want to adjust color, simply put the name of the color you want in between brackets before and at the end of your post. Ex: [ color=nameofcolor ]TEXT[ /color ] (without the spaces between brackets) Enjoy the board. [shadow=red,left,300]Maverick's 666th post![/shadow]

Welcome aboard, kaeis!!
I'm what I guess you would call 'old hat' when it comes to being an atheist ... been one for oh, some 15 years now. But, that certainly doesn't mean that I have nothing new to learn. I've actually found that I have learned so much more in the past couple of years (since I became involved with the on-line communities) than I have in the first decade+ ...
{On a side note ... congrats on that impressive post-count, Mav ... where's the party?? Should I bring anything to eat?}
