Yusuf Ahmad, 33, raised Muslim, is now an atheist. His doubts set in as a child with sacred stories he just didn't believe.

"Like the story of Abraham — his God tells him to sacrifice his son. Then he takes his son to sacrifice him, and he turns into a goat. I remember growing up, in like fifth [or] sixth grade I'd hear these stories and be like, 'That's crazy! Why would this guy do this? Just because he heard a voice in his head, he went to sacrifice his son and it turned into a goat?' There's no way that this happened. I wasn't buying it.

What does the koran say?

When you are a Bear of Very Little Brain, and you Think of Things, you find sometimes that a Thing which seemed very Thingish inside you is quite different when it gets out into the open and has other people looking at it.

If you could turn people into goats I'd have done it to my sister by now. Goats are awesome

Back when I was playing like 8 hours of Skyrim a day, I had downloaded a mod that gave me a goat companion who followed me around and helped me in battle. He saved my life many times and was just so awesome that I acquired a love for him that was unlike any goat before.

Top that off with my random liking of goats (probably because of my dad using the word goat too much in my childhood), and I'm really considering getting a couple pet goats (they like to have buddies) later in my life if I have the land for it (they like to have an area they can bounce around in).

I don't really want kids, but I sure wouldn't mind a couple of kids
