When i was a child i went to a catholic school so my first doubts of religiousness was seeing some of the more religious kids getting into fights about who was closest to god. Also the men and women of the church even when i was a kid seemed hypocritical to me, preaching about jesus and how you should be kind to the poor yet at the same time they would make fun of the clothes people wore or people with less money. Then when i was a bit older about 8 or 9 you ask yourself "what about the dinosaurs?" for a book that describes each detail upon the creation of the earth but then forgets to mention dinosaurs is a bit strange. The bible would have been more accurate if it would have said "then god created giant terrible lizards but he wasnt pleased with the lizards so he killed them then created great apes which would eventually evolve into man" then obviously man got on his nerves too so he killed all of them except noah and his family.
Then later i got to know other religions and realised they are basically all as strange and unbelievable as each other and all rely upon evidence from over heresay from over 1500 years ago which isnt good enough.
I still say god or some gods might exist but if he or she or they do they obviously dont want to be known about, or arent trying very hard to be believed. And i think if they are judging humanity i think religious people will have more to answer for in terms of being gullible, cowardly and hypocritical.

Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
