This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.

This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?

Just post some stuff and don't spam.

I wouldn't answer atheist because I feel that's as much a belief as any religion. I'm agnostic. The most undecided choice possible.

Atheism is nothing more than a lack of belief in any god.

It's a bit like asking me what's my favourite marvel superhero. It's not that I don't like them or don't think they are important for some people. It's just not relevant for me.
