For you Atheists out there, what were the first things you began noticing that made you want to go against religion?
-
Pope sits on a golden throne and asks us poor to give him more money for the church.

Well in the case of Christianity in particular, I found that people had a really dumb interpretation of their own religion. Jesus preached tolerance and non-violence, yet Christianity's record of violence and hatred throughout history is staggering.

We're told that most myths are just made up stories that have no facts behind them, and we should egnore them, but then we're expected to believe these made up stories with no facts behind them becauseit's somehow different. They can't tell ya how, but it is.

Well I'm not atheist but I'm still against religion.
I always think very much and analyze everything around me trying to figure it out and religion was no exception.Well,after a while of thinking I found religion to be very unreasonable and stupid,and found enough reasons so as not to believe in any religion anymore. -
(Im not going to fight I just wanted to say this. XD)
@Miki jeez! My church doesn't do that, you CAN pay tithing if you want, but it goes toward charities and building new churches, temples, etc. -

Two responses to that:
1. Children in Nazi Germany were expected to be in Hitler Youth. It had nothing to do with political leanings.
2. Considering that Christianity has a far bloodier record than Nazism, I would be afraid of a pope who used to be Nazi. I'd be afraid of a Nazi who used to be a pope. -
I felt that none of the stories made sense.
-
Well for me, I guess it was just because I didn't believe any of it.
For example, when I was younger, I would pray to God and nothing would happen.
One day I decided to pray to my dead grandmother and everything just went right. -
Butterflykitten NewbieI never went against it. I was kind of always an atheist, nobody ever said anything about a god, and now I just find it a little silly.
