Idealistic Animals - Dear Reader

“We feed our hunger, clothe our cold, we’re just idealistic animals” - I love this band. Lead singer Cherilyn Mac Neil is also a south african, a similar age to me and has she has a similar story to me. If you listen to their 3 albums “The Younger” (under the name Harris Tweed), “Replace why with funny” and “Idealistic Animals” you can follow her story. And not to mention, hear their amazing music!

About

My name is Steve and I'm from South Africa.

I used to be a fundamentalist Christian (well I called myself a born again pentecostal charismatic christian, but it boils down to the same thing). When I was 19 years old I re examined my beliefs and realised that they don't make any sense. So I left the church, sadly alienating me from many of my friends. For the next 6 years I did not associate myself with any group. If people said "Are you an Atheist" I said "No, I'm Steve". A year or two ago I realised, by non believers not identifying as atheists, religious people get the impression that they are a blank slate and thus you are promoting ignorance. People need to know that there are people who don't believe in a god and that this is a considered decision. I am an atheist and I'm not ashamed!
