People come to atheism all sorts of ways. But many many of us were once Christian, or Muslim or Mormon or something else. Many, like me have been raised in very actively Christian household and were subjected to plenty of religious education. Frankly, I've just about all the immersion I can stand.
Since then I have read other things I'd be happy to share. But I don't think you'd like to immerse yourself in some secular critical studies of the Bible?
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
