Was anybody here raised non-Christian?

RE: Was anybody here raised non-Christian?
Raised in a secular Jewish (culturally speaking) home.

Both my sister and I were brought up to think for ourselves.

She became a biologist that is vaguely 'spiritual'. I am an agnostic atheist.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
