Did anyone else get deconverted by a single sentence?

RE: Did anyone else get deconverted by a single sentence?
I recall many people within our church community that were sincere and didn't seem bothered by my concerns. If I hadn't been deconverted already by my uncle's vapid remark, I would have been by something on the wall of our Sunday school. The ten commandments were all given cute little anthropomorphic animal illustrations, and one of them was for 'Thou Shalt Not Covet'. Knowing full well that this was an impossibility to keep from doing, that would have proved to me that god was too moronic to exist as described. All that revelation did was make me look at all the adults funny from then on.
Religions were invented to impress and dupe illiterate, superstitious stone-age peasants. So in this modern, enlightened age of information, what's your excuse? Or are you saying with all your advantages, you were still tricked as easily as those early humans?

There is no better way to convey the least amount of information in the greatest amount of words than to try explaining your religious views.
