Where do I stand?
#7
RE: Where do I stand?
The bible is a good read if you shuffle past the begats (Yeesh).

I would suggest the OT which is full of people tolchoking and knifing each other. The NT is all preachy talking and loving one another; very different from the ultraviolence in the OT.

Darwinian makes a good point that starting with "The God Delusion" would shore you up against the pull of theism. That is why I think you should read the bible first to make your conversion story better. Smile Take the road that SHOULD lead to theism, end up at atheism and surprise yourself. Either way, increasing knowledge is a good thing. Smile
