Greetings from DC
Hi Everyone,

I recently joined the forums after listening to a lot of the Podcasts. A little about me, I am a gay black male living in the Washington DC area with my partner of 6 years. I have never been overly religious but I did believe. However, recently I have come to grips with religion being an absolute farce! There are just too many things that make no sense. A lot of times I want to speak out on the absurdity of it all but I have to be careful with that for obvious reasons. Smile

I look forward to conversing with you all and learning as much as I can.

RE: Greetings from DC
Welcome! I hope you like it here as much as I do. This is definitely the place to address absurdity. I think we're pretty well-versed in religious absurdity and hypocrisy. You have at least one fellow-forum member near you, or is moving there soon.

I look forward to getting to know you.

Welcome.
