StridentLobster

I'm a secular humanist with training in biology literary linguistics.

I lost my belief in the supernatural while I was going about learning just how truly awesome and magnificent the real world is.

I think that it cheapens our bright, ephemeral existence as self-aware aggregates of matter to waste time in prayer or devotion to the unseen and the, by definition, unknowable. So it is that I've chosen to dedicate some of my own precious time on this glorious riot of a world to help other people realize this.

I hope to contribute a very little bit to the propagation of knowledge and rationality. I hope to show the beauty of science as a humbling, consciousness-expanding endeavour. I hope to convince people, even just a little bit, that life is what you make it, and not what some musty old books tell you it should be.

To quote the Infidelguy, I'm trying to spread love through reason and logic.
