Seriously? Waoh, were you living on the moon?ladiesman391 said:I'm an atheist because I had no religious influence what so ever in my upbringing...
Okay, I'll revise that, growing up in Australia I was in-directly influenced, but in my own home my parents and grandparents and other family members never spoke of religion or God EVER, to this day I have never heard my father speak about religion, the most religious thing I heard him say was when we were camping and a storm passed through while we slept and his tent was directly beneath a dodgy tree which we pointed out to him the next morning and he said "oh well if it's my time, it's my time.", His casualness and calmness about it scared the hell out of me intitially as a young boy, but later on I realised how little fear and regret he lives his life with (and he is definitely one person that can say has lived his life). It wasn't until I was 18 or so that my mother admitted she started believing in Buddhism and re-incarnation, but only on a mild philosiphical level inspired by Ghandi I think, she never attempted to become a monk and probably has read very little on Buddhism and never talks about it. I've only ever been to church once, when I was about 10yrs old with my friend and his family and it scared the shit out of me, the amount of preaching and intimidation they used was frightening (imagine going every Sunday!)., I never went back there again the whole experience left me feeling perplexed. Science on the other hand I found MUCH more interesting from a young age. My parents also divorced when I was like 12, so there's very little religious influence in my upbringing. Is that enough information on my childhood for you theatheistguy, you sarcastic bastard! It's spelled "woah" btw. And I think you're still upset that I called you a retard.theatheistguy said:Seriously? Waoh, were you living on the moon?
Didn't need to tell me anything, just needed to say you didn't grow up in a Christian home or go to church. Also, still not annoyed at you calling me a retard because I have the ability to get over things and laugh back at childish tantrums.ladiesman391 said:Is that enough information on my childhood for you theatheistguy, you sarcastic bastard!

I just wanted to have the last word here, if you had to get over it then it had to have affected you to begin with, I believe you're over it now though.theatheistguy said:still not annoyed at you calling me a retard because I have the ability to get over things
