- Why you left your religion.
- As early as 7 or 8 years old I realized that the Christian teachings - bible stories about Adam and Eve, Noah et al were incompatible with reason and logic. You don't believe that do you? Really? At 7 or 8? - Yes. During a religious education class ( normal at that time in the UK ) I questioned the preacher giving the lesson about the story of Noah - Why would God kill all those people? New born babies, sheep, goats, 70 year old men and women who may only have done good in their lives, all killed - slaughtered by this God - it simply made no sense to me even at that age. And the response of the Minister "teaching" us? Do not question God. That was it - I knew right there, right then - this was not true.

Christopher Hitchens: The New Commandments
"But why is he so angry - atheists are always so angry.............oh, wait, he's not angry - he's articulate, reasoned, logical and calm. OK - then he's not a true atheist!!"
alexander hill replied to Monica Salcedo (Monicks)'s discussion 'Is it a good thing to be an activist?'"Decided to write this **before** reading the other replies.
I understand exactly what you're saying here - or asking - and it's a perfectly reasonable question. My take on the question is this - who cares what anyone believes, if…"
