Being on the minority side of the argument gets aggravating at times so I thought I would see what it felt like to join the company of other atheists, agnostics, and freethinkers for a change. As for just who I am, I'm a 26 y/o male from "the bible belt" of Mississippi. I have actively called myself an atheist/agnostic for about 6 months now. Most of my family and friends know of my beliefs and are coming to accept them. I've spent the last few months debating my beliefs with Christians on The General Discussion board of www.southernsportstonight.com. For a little fun I propose a few of you wander over for some lively "debate". It's more or less pot shots at your character but you get used to it, or so I have. I won't go so far to say that I'm 100% sure a god doesn't exist, but I don't believe there is enough evidence for one at this time. However, I am almost 95% sure the Christian god doesn't exist. I'm sure I'll be asked to quantify that statement in the future but I don't think this introduction is the place for that. So you can call me atheist/agnostic/freethinker whatever you will. I look forward to learning more about many of you and debating with and against you.

Welcome to the board, Parker. I look forward to discussing, debating, whatevering with you in the future.
My views on a deity are very similar to yours, except I would bump the probability of the Yahweh cult god up a few notches (I'm 100% certian the Omni4 deity does not exist).

A late welcome to you Parker. I hope you'll enjoy it here. Since you are an atheist from the Bible Belt, I'd imagine a setting like this might be a little bit of a relief for you.
Feel free to join the discussions and send me a message if you need anything.
