I've been a self confirmed Athiest since I was 17 or 18. I'm nearly 60 now. I was baptised as a Catholic when I was born and went to a Catholic primary school . Me and my brother trained as alter boys for my cousins wedding and I convinced my older brother to pinch the alter wine when the priest left the vestry. Lucky we were not sodomised as a result! I started to think that God was all bullshit when as an 8 or 9 year old an other kid asked a nun whether the stories in the old testament were all true? Her response was that " You can't always believe the old testament but the new testament is all true". Warning sirens started sounding for me with that answer!! I went to a public high school and that is when I started to learn! By the time I was heading to 17 the little faith I ever had in god had evaporated with a lot of self debate. My brother still believes in god even after one of our cousins who was catholic priest has been convicted of paedeophillia. He is a sick bastard!! ( my cousin) After all of this I would like to see the catholic and all the religions of the world banned. Peace on earth can only be earned after this happens! I'm not sure how or when this will ever happen when the religious have closed minds! They need to brought to their knees, financially and personally!

G'day mate, and welcome to the forum.
I'm a creationist; I believe that man created God.

Yep, there's quite a few of us! @Leon Wieckowski welcome (04-09-2020, 03:32 PM)Minimalist Wrote: Nothing creates atheists like catholick bullshittery. Welcome aboard, friend. So someone claimed to be devoted to God and you believed them, and it hurt you, so you don't believe anymore. So some people claim to be devoted to God but really are devoted to dark desires and can't overcome them. What of this is a reason to become Atheist and disbelieve?
This is not the place for it, son.
Try to obey some forum rules.

Welcome Woof Leon!
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
