LOL, me a converter (back to any religion), hahahahahahahaaaa!!
Man, at least you'll have more time to get to know us. You can check out my website http://www.members.shaw.ca/eostory/
I've been atheist/humanist/Bright, etc. My whole life. I tried religion, but gave that up after reading the bible and a few other alarming experiences. Every time I'm in a church and hear stupid things like "HIV/AIDS is a curse from God for Gays" (this in a United Church of all places), I want to scream.
I've always been a skeptic too. Questioning everything and looking up information avidly. Any questions...I can usually find some sort of of answer from the vast resources on the net or even in my books at home.
I respect those like some skepchicks here that are Christian and skeptic, but I just cannot do it myself. I hold no malice to Christians as a whole, just to trying to convert others that are just fine, thank you. So you can see, I would be the last person to think of as the sort trying to convert others to anything.
So, thank you for taking the plunge and answering my question! I have a great curiosity about others' life experiences. I hope I don't come across as a snoop, just curious
