Hello Fellow Humans

Hello fellow humans. I am new to the Rational Response Squad. My name is Christopher. I am a high school math teacher in Ohio in America, where in reason, not god, we trust. I was a long non-practicing christian and then actually started reading all of the bible, opening my mind, acquiring as much knowledge as possible, and before I or my wife knew it, BLAM! I was an atheist. I don't really like labels, but if you needed to label me according to how I believe the universe works, then go ahead.  By the way my young blog is http://logicandreason-dibattista.blogspot.com/.

Welcome to the forum. I'm from Ohio most of the time (travel a bit for work). Great to hear we have at least one rational teacher in the state. 

If, if a white man puts his arm around me voluntarily, that's brotherhood. But if you - if you hold a gun on him and make him embrace me and pretend to be friendly or brotherly toward me, then that's not brotherhood, that's hypocrisy.- Malcolm X
