Raised Southern Baptist, Atheist since 2007, Theology, Cosmology, and Abiogenesis hobbiest. Rational philosopher and logical deep thinker.

Experience in the area

Raised Southern Baptist (Oklahoma), three times weekly including bible study. At age 39 I thought I wanted to be a better Christian and make God a priority and center of my life; until I actually got serious with the study and realized that all this God business was actually just a business. Then I picked up all the other religions for comparison and studied theology as a whole in order to understand religion as a whole. Since then I have thrown out my respect for religious organizations and the dishonest people who run them. I am not militant against religion and feel that personal and private spritiuality is a human right. I'm 100% sure there is no master of the Universe concerned with our daily existance but hold reserve about where everything came from; I don't know but at least science doesn't invoke far fetched unbased fantasy. I'm also 100% sure that beyond death there is no consciousness, spiritual or ghostly existance and I bravely accept that my demise will be real.

What do you like about this subject?

Religion is facinating as the most powerful and wide spread maind control ever devised by man.

What do you still hope to achieve/learn in this field?

I wish to become an authorative author on the subject of religion and atheism to hopefully change some minds and make a positive impact on our evolution into intelligent rational thought.

Something interesting about this subject that others may not know:

Teaser: In the book of Genesis, Eve was created twice.

Something controversial or provocative about this subject

Religion is the leading cause of war, hatred, bigotry, and prejudism. Most people of any religion do not know the history and origins of their religion, excepting it to save face and be accepted by their peers.

It's wrong to thank a deity whom one assumes is looking out for you but seems to ignore the plight of others. It's wrong because it makes one an elitist, better and more deserving than others. It's wrong
