Perhaps, An Introduction?
Today, I'm 19 years old, and I attend the University of Washington, Seattle, majoring in physics.
I grew up in a non-religious household (not counting the government), so while I never believed in God, I never considered myself an atheist until I was older. When I was 16, I was emotionally swindled and had theistic thoughts for a while (I tried praying), but other than that, I've been an atheist my entire life. When I debate with people with a different perspective, I always try to be respectful and understand their position, but I often discover that I have a rather short fuse.
My username is a reference to The Butter Battle Book by Dr. Seuss, not South Park. However, if you want to continue reading my posts with Butter's voice in your head, you have my permission to do so, because that's awesome.
I've now spent exponentially more time on this forum than any other forum I've ever visited, and I'll most likely stick around a lot longer. I really like it here. The discussions are interesting and informative, and the people on this forum are extremely intelligent. Heck, I even love the layout.
Yup, that's pretty much everything I wanted to say. Carry on.

Our revels now are ended. These our actors, | As I foretold you, were all spirits, and | Are melted into air, into thin air; | And, like the baseless fabric of this vision, | The cloud-capped towers, the gorgeous palaces, | The solemn temples, the great globe itself, - Yea, all which it inherit, shall dissolve, | And, like this insubstantial pageant faded, | Leave not a rack behind. We are such stuff | As dreams are made on, and our little life | Is rounded with a sleep. - Shakespeare

To a belated intro, here's a belated welcome. Just a point of curiosity; your English is obviously perfect, are you also fluent in Chinese and which dialect?

I am fluent in Mandarin. But, I can't read or write mandarin since I came over when I was 7 and memorizing every single symbol is a pain.
