I've never been married or had any children for the reason of having complete control over all aspects of my life.
I grew up with a pentecostal mother and it was hell. I would easily say these are the worst of the christians, my mother claims to have seen Jesus in the sky and warns us of hell almost every day growing up. I've been told that I have a demon in me since I laugh at the bible, Yahweh, Jesus. I'm almost 50 and have been an atheist probably since 5 when I asked the question if God made us, who made God......the infinite regress.
It's no laughing matter who you get into a relationship with when it comes to atheism. We have a trip hammer response to bullshit by default, we are known for sniffing out and questioning anything and everything.
I used to think atheism was just one aspect of who I am, but it overlaps in all areas of my thinking. Once you throw out God, you start looking around for other things to throw out as well, you realize that society is largely built on myths that there is no objective reality, everything is relative, everything is a matter of chemical reactions in our brains, pretty soon everything that one can hold dear is tossed away, more and more is tossed, stripped down to the point you start realizing it's all bullshit. Which at the point you are a danger to the public, a public that lives and dies by belief in these myths that hold our f*cked up society together.
