Most of my family tree is currenty consisting of hardcore catholics filled with conservativeness to the core. I was raised as one but I'm just unable to see a point in all that. I really didn't find available material as being enough for persuading me. I'm neutral in this regard - I don't really care about any sort of religion, consider it as a part of everyday life in current modern society and tolerate it unless someone is trying to force it onto me. If I were to point out a thing that really made me start questioning this matter, it would be the obvious 'incompatibility' between each religion, huge masses of people all having their own completely unrelated truths, higher beings, traditions and stamping all different religions as unacceptable, bad, wrong and only 'our' as the correct, saint, acceptable one. Christians are especially intolerable religion in this regard, probably the most out of all world-wide religions.

yes he is actually right
christians are actually brought up and might have to believe its not their fault
from an extract i read recently
"As a child, my wife hated her school and wished she could leave.
Years later, when she was in her twenties, she disclosed this
unhappy fact to her parents, and her mother was aghast: 'But
darling, why didn't you come to us and tell us?' Lalla's reply is my
text for today: 'But I didn't know I could.'
I didn't know I could.
I suspect - well, I am sure - that there are lots of people out there
who have been brought up in some religion or other, are unhappy
in it, don't believe it, or are worried about the evils that are done in
its name; people who feel vague yearnings to leave their parents'
religion and wish they could, but just don't realize that leaving is an
option. If you are one of them, this book is for you. It is intended
to raise consciousness - raise consciousness to the fact that to be an
atheist is a realistic aspiration, and a brave and splendid one. You
can be an atheist who is happy, balanced, moral, and intellectually
fulfilled."
this way i proved your point and also atheism is good, but u can keep it silent if u want and still live happy

@Dixon link
First bible shows history and history has a lot of things in it, even prostitutes and other things. That is helpful for understanding and knowing the past.
But i don't think that little kids read the full version of bible,there are a lot of shot versions for children and young.

uh actually i dont think its helpful
and the prostitute thing
thats the last testament
its the whore of babylon and seven bowls of wrath which has got nothing to do which is important
this is about the end of the world
it is future and hence u cant understand the past

@others
How many of you have read bible (or Quran)? And why did you read it?

i doubt anyone has read it fully, and if they did it was mostly because there parents forced them to
and they wouldnt understand much as most people wont be able to paraphrase

@Dixon
Form your words you look that you are now believer. But this is very weird, how did you knew about that link?

no it seems that he is brought up as a christian, but doesnt believe in god
