About Me
I’m not going to say too much here other than that my name is Mark and that this blog is mostly about:
- What it means to be an atheist
- Exploration of values, morals and world views
- Science and rational/freethinking
- Dialogue with other atheists
- Dialogue with open-minded theists (fundamentalists, creationists etc need not apply)
- Having some fun with it all (life’s too short not too)
Here are a few more links about me:
- My Decision to “Come Out” As An Atheist
- My History With Religion and How I Became an Atheist
- Hiding In Plain Sight (A welcome to my real-life friends)
- Other Places To Find Me On The Web
Thanks for visiting!
