Hi, how we all goin. I just came across this page while looking up agnostic on Google. I'm 23 from Sydney, Australia. My dad is an atheist and mums a anglican (church of england). Even though i was baptised anglican no religion was ever forced onto me as a child. I was taught to be a good person and though i belived my religion, I didn't have a "need" 4 it. This could count for why I proberaly can count on my hand the amount of times I've been to church (excluding wedding/baptisms/funerals) I was 1st introduced to agnosticism by my 10th grade english teacher, but as u can proberly tell by my spelling and grammer i wasn't payin 2 much attention. It wasn't untill recently when i and my partner had a child and a number of people started 2 push us 2wards baptising my child that i lost faith in the church. attending church was fine but it didn't do anything for me. that was 2 years ago and since then i have been working out what i believe in. I am not quite sure where i fit in but i don't believe in any theism yet unlike an atheist i still believe there may be a sometime more out there. A "god" if u will. But what that something is, is sometime we may never be able 2 prove or disprove . I have no problem with anyone believeing or doing as they wish as long as they don't bring harm 2 others

Welcome to the forum! I love Foster's Lager beer, but I have yet to try a vegemite sandwich. Are they any good? And what exactly is it?

Hi Repsa

welcome to the forum, have fun

GX ... of course you have to let Respa know Marmite sandwiches are much better .....

Which brand of marmite are you referring to? British or New Zeland? And what of swiss cenovis?

romansh

The British ... I suppose
the important thing about marmite is that is made from yeast left over from the beer brewing process...... Can't be all bad. I suspect the Kiwi marmite is a British export either physically or metaphorically. Unaware of any Swiss version

Thanks 4 the kind welcome. vegemite is concentrated yeast, the by-product of making beer. it is very similar to marmine which is also the by-product of beermaking the main diff being unlike that warm brown water the english call beer. we here in australia know what beer is. also in my 23 years on earth i have only once seen Fosters on sale. Australia makes some great beers and fosters isn't 1 of them. try a Tooheys, XXXX (4x), VB (Victorian Bitter), Casade, Coopers or Emu Beer

Too funny! I guess fosters is pretty much for export only and you keep all the good stuff for yourselves. American mass marketed beers (with the exception of sam adams) are pretty much the equivalent to a non-sweet, bland tasting carbonated beverage with alcohol. The only situation I find myself truly enjoying and preferring a mass marketed american beer is if Im sitting outside under a hot sun on a beach and the beer is ice cold. It goes down pretty easy, tastes refreshing and doesnt bloat you. Otherwise, I would rather have the european styles and microbrews.

I take it you have not gone on your international walkabout? ...

all the best have fun here
