Christians just never grow up. They still have God to please. To each his own but I am so happy not to have been born into a family which could have led to my becoming an apologist for some religion.
As an atheist who is free from all of that, I am curious...how are you "grown up" when you:
have to please a spouse
have to please your kids
have to please your boss
have to please the government
etc.
When do you finally get to grow up and be free from all of that enforced "being good"?
