introduction

Hello, my name is Nate and I am atheist. I grew up in the bible belt raised by 2 very religious parents that had different personalities. At home they hated each other and at church you'd never know this. Ever since I was old enough to form my own opinion, I knew christianity was a farce when I compared god to Santa Claus and was told that Santa was fake. I mean how could one magical elf make toys for every good boy and girl and deliver them in one night? Yet god is the 3-in-one and is everywhere but nowhere in particular... How could a loving creator let there be free will and so much evil in this world? These are a few things that came to mind and set the stage for more thinking and creativity than my intellectually stunted friends, not saying I'm a genius, just that when you leave everything to a non-existent spirit, you quit thinking for yourself. I have so much more to say, but I will leave it at that. Thank you for listening to my diatribe.

Nate
