Introduction of AFPLU
Hi, everyone. I just wanted to introduce myself to the forum right quick.
I'm a life-long atheist, raised by atheists. I have a LOT of practice defending atheism and attacking theism. The recent attention atheism has been getting in the media has made me feel pretty good lately!
Other than that, not much to say. I'm married, I bike everywhere, and I live in St. Paul, MN. Also, I run the AFPLU shop. (I won't post the URL because I'm seriously not here to sell stuff.)

Welcome Afplu!! You are lucky, I wish I could bike everywhere. We are too sprawled here in St. Louis.
Welcome!
It's funny. I actually had some success convincing theists to come over to the bright side when i was much younger. I guess kids are better able to listen to reason!
Man I tried. A couple weeks ago I had this idea that I would start biking to work. 16 miles each way. I made the trip. But it took a long time. Im a smoker of 10 years now. It was rough. Im scared of my bike now.
Welcome Afplu!!

Thanks! My ride to work is only about 7 miles each way. And I quit smoking about 5 months ago. I highly recommend it!
I also recommend shrinking your triangle!

I would love to shrink my triangle and when I can get a job close enough that pays enough I would love to make it an equilateral triangle, right now it is more like an obtuse triangle. LOL/
I quit smoking like less than a week ago and I'm amazed at how much better my breathing is, it's amazing.
Also, welcome to our forums!
What's an Afplu store? 0o

I considered quitting. But then i wont have any addictions left. Then i wont know what to do with my time.
Really I dont think Im ready to quit. My understanding is its one of those things you have to be 100% commited to doing.

I thought it would be wicked hard, because I'm actually young and stupid enough to 'enjoy' smoking.
But I read this book, and honestly, I just quit.
It was so easy.

Well you can call me stupid then because I enjoy my smokes. lol. However the burning in the lungs in the morning isnt to pleasent.

I didn't mean to imply you were stupid.
I apologize, I should have worded that better.

lol. Dont worry about it. I didnt think that. I was just agreeing. I probably shouldnt convince myself that I enjoy smoking. It is just a tough habit to break. I always feel like Im forgetting something when I havent smoked for a while. It messes with my head.

afplu just stands for atheists for peace, love, and understanding. it's what i named my cafepress shop. i figured the designs are all atheist, and i like elvis costello a lot, so it made sense for a name!
I should totally buy an ad on this site, btw.... Hmmm....
Welcome Afplu,
I'm sure you'll enjoy it here. I'm not a life long atheist but probably a life lonf skeptic.
