I agree 100% Claude. I still remember the day it happened to me. I was a practising Catholic since I was a kid. One day not long after my son was born I sat with him in the rocking chair, contemplating the world and all of the horrible things that we humans do to each other. I decided then and there that I simply could not believe that this supposedly benevolent god would allow these atrocities to happen. I shed a few tears, then I gathered myself and stuck with my decision to embrace atheism and free-thinking. On the whole it has made me a much better person and I've found a sense of wonder in the world that I haven't had since I was a child. "Break the chains and set yourself free!"
