I come from a Northern European country and my English is fluent. I've lived in the suburbs of a major US city for 2 years now but I really don't seem to fit in, even though I try. I find the food servings far too large, heavy and fattening. I think the majority of network TV programmes is too bland and aimed at a low IQ level. The news almost seems censored with its US-centred view of the world. I also think most people I seem to meet are rather naiive and parochial with their view of their country and the world. But I want to try... how can I be more American?

I am tired of hearing Christians complaining that the non-christians need to stop posting in this category. This category is for ALL religions and spiritual paths, and there is more than just Christianity as a religion.

Here are the advantages of converting fairy tale believers to Atheism

1. It promotes thinking

2. It promotes self confidence

3. It promotes being good without having a gun to your head(threat of going to hell)

4. It makes people realize that only man can fix mans problems

5. By not believing in the after life, it causes us to place more value on the REAL life

Note: I like when a fairy tale believer tries to convert me because they're the ones that end up questioning their belief. My Atheism is sitting on a solid platform.

I talk kind of funny even though I am 31 years old and have lived in the U.S. all my life. Many people ask me what country I'm from because they detect an accent. When I tell them I was born and raised in America, they ridicule me about how my voice sounds funny. I am of mixed race and many think I'm either Dominican of from India just from looking at me. I took speech therapy as a child and it didn't help. Should I lie and say I'm from another country to excuse the way I sound? English is the only language I know, so what if someone asks me to speak my "native" language.?

It always seems like this question is always dodged by pro-immigration (illegal immigration, that is) activists. I have yet to hear a sensible response to this question.
