Athyist Development Suspended
Due to my fickle nature, I have lost interest in this project. There are already several active atheist blogs to choose from. I would suggest www.thinkatheist.com.

In The Beginning…
Welcome to Athyist, I hope you find something of interest here. The purpose of this blog is to serve as a medium for my musings on life, death, religion, and the universe in general. I hope to foster an open environment here for discussion on these topics, and I promise that I will not censor any opinions so long as they are not spam or obvious attempts to troll.
I highly encourage all who visit to comment on articles which catch their attention, or to simply send me a message through the contact page. I will respond to all who take the time to contact me, and am more than willing to entertain suggestions for article topics.
This blog will be updated every Sunday, so please stop by weekly to see what new topics I’m blabbering about.
