diogenes of mayberry

I have journeyed through the entire spectrum of belief from moderate Christian, to born-again, back to moderate, to agnostic and finally, over the past 10 years, to confirmed atheist. Raised in a moderate Christian family with regular attendance in church as a child, indoctrinated in a Baptist school for two years, I started the journey to atheism in university after being removed from the weekly immersion of church and exposed to new ideas and experiences. I prefer to think of myself as a humorous humanist, rather than a raging atheist. I am also a certified scuba instructor and a passionate marine environmentalist.
