New atheist, been a lurker for a bit.

Hey everyone, I'm a 16 year old high school student from Tennessee, USA. I've been an atheist ever since I realized that "speaking in tongues" was not evidence of the Judeo-Christian god's existence (around 3 years ago), since that was literally the only thing keeping my god belief alive (I suspected the Bible was bullshit [the creation story in particular] from a very early age -- and yes, I do abuse parenthetical phrases). I've since refined my opinions on what I consider to be the important questions, those dealing with morality, meaning, society and the like, and in accordance with those views I prefer the term "freethinker" to atheist.

Anyway, I support what the RRS is doing (even if I may not agree with their methods at times), and I'm glad to be a part of the forum.

Welcome to RRS. I'm sure

Welcome to RRS. I'm sure you'll find it enlightening and magical here. Well not magical since magic doesn't exist. This place is great.
