This will be my first post here, and it is very difficult to write, as silly as that may seem. I suppose it is not helped when I have been very honest here on my profile regarding things that I normally am not particularly forward with. Hello massive anxiety.

I have received a warm reception from the welcome committee volunteers. Very friendly and helpful. Taking the time to say hello, ECT. to newbies is a really an awesome thing to do. It is strange and somewhat scary to be in a place where I do not have to hide behind a mask. The kindness is very much appreciated.

I hope to maybe get to know a few people better, or at least branch out a little bit socially. It is a rare pleasure to be able to share thoughts with others, unconcerned of the repercussions of honesty.

To anyone who reads this, if you should feel so inclined, please feel free to say hello or whatever else you may wish to say.

Thank you to all who take the time to read this.

(The response to this post has been massive!!! Thank each and everyone of you who have taken the time to say hello and such. I appreciate all of you for taking the time to do it. It is really nice to have seemingly been so warmly embraced by everyone. I want to apologize to anyone I do not personally respond to. I am going to try and give each and every person the thank you they deserve, but if I miss you, or it takes awhile, please have no doubt that your response is very much appreciated. This place has gotten off to a really awesome start. Thank you all again!!!"

Welcome. You seem kind and sensitive. There are some good people here. Some outspoken, but still very good. I'd suggest also exploring the groups on here, you may find good stuff there as well.

Yes, some outspoken and for the most part respectful of other thoughts and opinions!

Welcome to the community. As you can already see, there are a lot of nice, intelligent nonbelievers here (and a few believers too). =]

@SeptemberRain Me too! =]

Hello and welcome have fun

Although there are many words posted here about religion, and it's splendors, it is best to think of this place as just as usual as anywhere, but with one less stupidity pervading the air.

Non-belief does not translate directly into reasonableness. But, I do find non-believers are more willing to engage on any topic. This does not mean they will be informed, or swayable.

There are members that have never thought any religiousness exists, and some who are newly re-born looking for support.

So, engage in the exploration of imaginary, all powerful, petulant shits, if you are so inclined. And, enjoy the conversations that ne're touch upon the topics of such. I do both.

This place is better than the FB places.

I’m so sorry you have anxiety writing here. I think for the most part you will find people extremely welcoming. If you’re just looking for fluff conversations that’s easy enough to find. If you’re looking for deep philosophical questions, you can find that as well! If you haven’t already, I would suggest looking through and joining groups you are interested in.

Just like any internet site, there are trolls and assholes here. Don’t be afraid to block people. I’ve only blocked about 5 but it’s made my time much more enjoyable.

Welcome!!! ❤️❤️

Welcome along. I noticed a comment welcoming you along to the dark side, I share that sort of humour as to a lot of people we are on the dark side but perhaps it's not the light side either, remember in Poltergeist, going to the light was a bad thing! Perhaps we're on the enlightened side? 🙂

Anyways, have fun and see you out there/here 🙂

Hello and welcome!

Welcome. The formula is simple. You speak your mind on whatever topic you like. Some will love it, others not so much. Don't let that ever deter you. Enjoy the ride, don't worry about the destination

With the exception of a few trolls, you'll find this site a breath of fresh air.

Hello!

"When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same

Nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold SEPTEMBER rain"

I would say that you made a ‘grand entrance!’ I want to welcome you, and look forward to your posts! It is a good feeling to find out, that our ideas are acceptable and not so ‘far out,’ after all.

"If you take excenent care of yourself, the very best that can happen is that eventually you will get very sick and die." Take advantage of every chance you get to make yourself at home and enjoy as many good friends as you can. Choose wisely but don't be bashfull. It's your time to live. Be brave. They can't eat you. So savor the good and shine on the rest. Do not, as Thorough said "come to die and discover that you had not lived".

Hello. Meeting new people, on-line and in person for me, has always been fun. Over the years -- in life, not here -- I have met some grumpy people, but if I'm nice they are nice. Time always tell whether you will be friends, close friends, or more. Always have fun even with those who disagree with you. Those that are nasty usually leave or get kicked off. Welcome.

Hello. What do you do for enjoyment and relaxation?
