I was not raised anything we lived in bad neighborhoods when I was a kid.
I would see people going to church & wondered if there was something I was missing.
Everyone always looked so happy. I thought to myself maybe they were a better class of people. I started going when I was about 14 & went for about 6 months, I realized that everything they were no better then I was. So I stopped going & went back when I was 19
I got involved in church for 2 years then I started noticing how it was a place to meet others & not much more & the more I studied the bible the less sense it made.
There was no balance in it, how could life come up from just one person?
Next was the bloodshed in the bible the more I learned the more I understood I didnt wish to worship a God who had so much blood on his hands. Nor did I want to worship a God who seemed to look down on women.
