Hello all. My name isn't really Nick, but that is my nickname since school and so I'll just go along with that for now.
I live in Chennai and I've been an atheist since I was 14. Nine years on, I find that is the most liberating decision I have made and it set me on a path of self discovery and inquiry and helped me understand the world through reason and understanding as opposed to blind faith and dogma.
As an ex-Hindu, this wasn't a particularly difficult or dangerous thing to do and my parents are supportive, though not very. I hope to have good, intelligent discussions with all the lovely free-thinkers,agnostics and skeptics here and I'm glad to have met your acquaintance.
Cheers,
Nick.
