After explaining to an acquaintance that I had doubts about the existence of a god since I was 5 or so and that around the time I was 14 those doubts were strengthened when I actually READ the bible, this person said to me that at 5 and even at 14 I was far too young to be able to form an opinion on something as complex as god. They said I was also far too young to understand the "true depth of scripture" and that the bible's words have many more layers of meaning to them than I could have imagined at 14.
They then went on to say that now I am older, at 21, I should give god and the bible another chance because now and only now that I am older will I truly be aware enough and intelligent enough to accept jesus into my life. So basically it's the whole "You were never really a true Christian" argument - which is absolutely hilarious.
