Hi Andrew92, thanks for joining the forum. You indicated on your profile that you are an atheist meat eater. Is that a mistake, since you just admitted to being an orthodox christian? Please clarify.

Hello,I am atheist in the sence that I am not convinced with the exitence of a God,and eat meat because I dont see a conection between atheism and veganism...and if it would be a connecton it would be a stupid one-eating meat is natural and after i was born i was baptized an orthodox...this is legally i mean a state religion but not spiritualy

Welcome!
How did you become atheist?
How is it viewed where you live?

Just because it's natural, it doesn't mean it's ideal or justifiable - rape is also natural, but I don't think you accept what rapists do.
Differently from other animals, we have the cognitive capabilities to rationally think about it.
