I'm new here, plan on posting at least a wee little bit. As far as religion goes, I'd primarily classify myself as a/ignostic overall and philosophically agnostic but pragmatically atheist (in the sense of: without evidence for him, I don't see much point in bothering myself with the possibility of his existence) about the Abrahamic God in particular. As far as science goes, I don't know much about biology but I know a good bit about physics, so anything I'll post will focus more on big bang-type stuff than evolution arguments.
This looks like a good place, hope there's some level-minded people around here.

Interests:I enjoy playing, composing and recording music, and writing poetry and lyrics. I play electric and acoustic guitars, bass guitars, drums and percussion.
I’m an avid reader, and enjoy history (especially ancient history), philosophy, technical literature that lends itself to practical applications, science fiction and science fact, world religion (especially Judeao-Christian), debate transcripts, and anything concerning all phases of Christian Apologetics (Philosophical, Historical, scientific etc…).
I’m an avid hunter, enjoy shooting various weapons, and reload various calibers of hand-gun and rifle cartridges. I used to be into archery, but don’t really have the time for it anymore.
I’m retired Military, and currently work as a Technical Instructor/Curriculum Developer with over twenty-seven years of technical experience with testing and application of various system applications.
I currently have two pre-grad degrees, and am in the process of pursuing simultaneous post-grad degrees. -

Hi Martemius,
Welcome to the forum
I hope we get plenty of chances to learn from each other. I hope you don't take this question the wrong way. It's not intended to be such, its just an honest query.
If you "don't see much point in bothering myself with the possibility of Gods existence", then why come to a forum like this one to discuss the possibility of His nonexistence?
Why, bother yourself?
Again, I'm not attempting to be condescending or argumentative here. I'm just curious based upon your statement that I emboldened for emphasis. And thought it would be a good idea that you had the chance to expound.

Well, if I see credible evidence for his existence, then I suppose I'll bother myself with the possibility.

Hi welcome to the forum. When you say you hope there are level-minded people around here, are you saying you hope there aren't people that believe in Santa Clause, the Easter Bunny, and a flat earth? 
j/k
I see God in everything, but of course I look at everthing as if I am looking through the Bible. Every statement of faith I can get my hands on, in church, school, online, I sign it boldly and proudly. I see God in mankind, how different we are than animals and plants, I see God in his creation, we are here somehow, I see God in design, in natural nanomachines that are way ahead of anything man can duplicate at this time. In other words when I put my creation glasses on I can see God. Enjoy the conversations.
