Welcome to the dark side Luke.

But while you speak of escaping Christianity, the same could be said for other religious fundamentalists including Jews and Muslims and Hindus and Buddhists. It is not impossible for other people worldwide to get so into a religion as to get violent for political reasons. You were lucky not to get to that point, and even more lucky to see through it and escape it.

If you have not, I always like to ad to the standard book "The God Delusion" By Richard Dawkins the following.

1. "The New Atheism" by Victor Stenger
2. "God The Failed Hypothesis" Victor Stenger
3. "Infidel" Ayaan Hirsi Ali
4. "The End of Faith" Sam Harris
5. "Letter to a Christian Nation" Sam Harris
6. "God Is Not Great" Christoper Hitchens
7. "2000 Years of Disbelief" James Haught
