Going Back & Finding Nothing There

Welcome 'wastedlife', I was raised without belief unlike yourself and I identify with the above post by Paladin. During our early months together, my wife asked me to go with her to church a couple of times so I went along with an open mind (it was my first time after all).

I found the whole thing just creepy really, the congregation seemed like zombies to me. There just wasn't the sense of questioning, thinking or spontaneity in their eyes like I am drawn to in the people I associate with socially.

Their eyes just seemed dead and their smiles were like those in a mental asylum. Just writing it down now makes me shiver a little. My wife thankfully kicked it into touch and her belief along with it after spending more time with the evil heathen that I am.
