Teaching religion in school
#26
RE: Teaching religion in school
Even after being told Santa wasn't real, and all that, I figured Jesus must still definitely be real, because we don't see churches for Santa and the Easter Bunny. We don't have adults preaching salvation through the Tooth Fairy. Finding out that there are myths very similar to Jesus, and people actually used to worship the classical greek god as much as any other god, was the final nail in the coffin for me.

Once you learn more than what gets repeated at church over and over, you find out that this god isn't any more worth your time than the next one.
Poe's Law: "Without a winking smiley or other blatant display of humor, it is impossible to create a parody of Fundamentalism that SOMEONE won't mistake for the real thing."

Good video to watch, if you want to know how common the Jesus story really is.
