The assumptions implicit in this sentence are staggering. My parents whilst certainly not flawless or perfect, weren't xtian either. So that rather shoots your idiotic assumption down in flames doesn't it. ![[Image: mybannerglitter06eee094.gif]](https://images.weserv.nl/?url=i118.photobucket.com%2Falbums%2Fo112%2Fpussinboots_photos%2FBikes%2Fmybannerglitter06eee094.gif) If you're not supposed to ride faster than your guardian angel can fly then mine had better get a bloody SR-71. 
I was brought up mostly by foster care and group homes I spent about 4 years of my childhood with my biological mother. I reconnected with her as a young teen but I did not expect any perfection. Oh and in case you are wondering, my father abandoned my mother and I about three months before I was born. I don't think your upbringing is as relevant to your religious or non-religious beliefs later in life. Not everyone takes the same path in life and reach the same conclusions.
There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition

Thanks for that wonderful insight Dr. Sherry. I guess I am back to believing in God and killing abortion doctors.
