"Hung up" how very fucking patronisng of you.
I for one consider thinking independently and taking responsibility for one's life far more admirable rather than slavishly following the tribal superstitions of a bunch of bronze age goat herders.
Except if you're wrong and there really is a God who created you to know Him, and your desire for personal autonomy is actually a manifestation of your rebellion against His authority. I am not patronizing you; I am expressing what I sincerely believ. You could try to see it from my perspective before you assume that I am attacking you.

The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. Day unto day uttereth speech, and night unto night sheweth knowledge.
