Well, hello I s'pose. I was looking on youtube and discovered this website through the absolute demolition of the CNN report on whether atheists are being discriminated against by Sapient, and was very impressed by it. It's great to see that atheists are finally standing up for their rights and organising themselves into groups which contain power.

My name is Pat, as you've probably guessed. I live one the east coast of Australia, in Brisbane, which is about in the middle. I'm currently in year 12, still attending high school. My interests are fairly limited, but I thoroughly enjoy debating, cricket, and political discussion in any way shape or form.

I'm choosing to post here rather than an Australian forum because I am fascinated by the American religious situation. In Australia, as of the 2004 census, atheism is the largest religious affiliation, if you will. 1.7 million of the 20 odd million are Australians. When I first heard about the number of fundamentalist Christians in the United States I was visibly shocked. My motto is 'subvert the dominant paradigm', and you guys fit right in with that motto.

So anyway, thanks for reading, I look forward to posting more soon.
