    Hi. Atheist here.

    Not a disrespectful, scoff everytime someone says Jesus atheist, but an atheist none the less.

    No need to be a slave to a God that doesn't exist.

    Atheist here too. Apparently, Jesus doesn't seem to like the Opera web browser either :(

    Count me in Since I have been "without god" everything now makes so much more sense.

    My favorite quote: The bible says,"a fool says there is no god." If a fool can figure it out why can't you?

    Pretty close - I class myself as a secular humanist

    Interesting to get some picture as to how many of us there are. I've been in Witness-turned-atheist forums in the past, but they were always either very inactive or secular in name only. And they always seemed pretty small. I had begun to think that the vast majority of ex-Witnesses became fundamentalists, though it seemed like a fair number of us would take an interest in atheism to me. Not because of our bad experiences (a lame stereotype that gets old) but because of our mindset. I tend to find that we secular types have a somewhat different view of what truth is than believers. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course. But it took my experience with the WTS to get me fully on track with that way of thinking. I had begun to think I was highly unusual before I found JWD.

    PS-- I just want to see if this works. I doubt it will...

    When what you've been conditioned to believe in from birth reveals layers of deception to you, agnosticism is a place you're left in and atheism is only a step away!
