I am well versed on the arguments for both sides about the existence of God and have a comprehensive familiarity with the philosophical ramifications and psychological reactions to atheism. Also, if you have a question about atheism as that pertains to Science or Skepticism, I am an especially good pick. I am not an expert on the sociology and history of atheism, and I have little knowledge of non-Judeo-Christian religions.
I've been an atheist for 8 years now, open about it for 3 years. In that time I have held many different philosophical perspective on the subject and had different emotional and psychological reactions to atheism. I have absorbed many internet articles, video debates, atheist publications, and secular podcasts in my process of understanding and supporting the atheist movement. I routinely hold conversations on the subject.
