hello, as long as i can remember i had always wondered who god was and why he was "almighty" and was "everywhere" but as soon as i hit puberty (about 11-12) i realized what god really was (or wasn't). Unfortunately, everyone i know or ever met is a christian. i was adopted and my parents are borderline redneck with deep traces of racism and being deeply religious. for almost 5 years i have had to deal with this "secret" and having to bite my tongue whenever something religious and/or religiously racist. i just wanted to know if there are other people out there who are also hiding, what there story is, when you became an atheist etc.
