I have come to a corner of the Internet to preach a self evident truth to a godless population! You must accept god or go to- Nawh, I'm just messing with you. I JEST. I'm a 14 year old agnostic atheist from newtown. My parents tried to indoctrinate me by throwing bible after bible at me. I always asked questions that they wouldn't like to answer. I would ask things like "if the earth is only 10000 years old, how come the dinosaurs aren't still around? There's no way they could be killed off by ancient man with ancient weapons." And they'd always dismiss me with "ask god when you get to meet him (heaven)" at a very young age, I saw there was something wrong with the doctrines and ideology of the church, but I always kind of just accepted it because that was the way my parents raised me.
The first time that I really doubted in gods existence was when sandy hook happened. I happened to be in school that day reading to first graders for some community credits to look good in a college application. My sisters friend died that day. God clearly states that if you pray, that you shall receive. Well I prayed, and prayed, and he never came. Since then, I have found more logical reasons to not believe in god other than the emotional loss of a friend. Hopefully you guys will be much nicer and understanding than my parents who have taken away basically everything except my phone, that they can't find. I wonder why, it couldn't be because I have it now could it? So yeah, that's my story. Oh, and I also am an autistic savant. A small portion of my brain that is dedicated to speech is instead used by my brain as extra memory storage and processing power. In exchange, my speech is slurred and I often stutter mid sentence. A small price to pay for more intelligence.
