That decision was made over 50 years ago. I rejected the Bible as just a storybook, and I continue to reject it today.
Quote:When I passed through the gates of hell and just before the torure of hell fire took controll of my mine the idea of eternity of this was unbearable for one reason. I rejected God on false pretenses, and the fact that I did not know any better, the fact that i like many of you made crap up or cut and pasted bits from several different sources other than the bible, was my biggest haunting memory.. The thought that I might have been a different person and worshiped God if I had only ever been exposed to God's truth was goig to be what tormented me the most...
Get mental help. Seriously. You have obviously been traumatized by proselytizing assholes who hijacked your life by instilling terror in you. As I said, hanging is too merciful for bastards like that -- and I don't care who those bastards were. Even if they were your mother and father, they psychologically abused you and robbed you of simple enjoyment of reality. They need to suffer, not in hell but here in the real world. If they're already dead there's nothing more that can be done and it's up to you to get the counseling you so desperately need to overcome your Stockholm Syndrome-like relationship with an ancient fiction.
And your hell-creating imaginary fiend can bite me.
Actually grew up atheist-is and knew absolutely nothing of pass through it's gates. it wasn't to much later and much study that I could vett my experience of Hell with exactly what is described in scripture.
I can post a link as I have posted this story before, but the short version was I could not imagine what the big deal about hell was if we were dead. how do you burn a spirit right? so I mock God's people he sent to try I even sent a message back with one of them that if god gave me a chance I'd spit in his eye.... didn't quite turn out that way.
