I was a serious atheist. I had all of the arguments. Lots more than you, for example lol.
Yeah, judging from the rather groundless arguments you've presented to me so far I'm going to go ahead and call bullshit on this one unless you can present the argument to me that converted you.

That is until I did something most don't;
I read the Bible cover to cover... and it made me laugh. It was bitter laughter at how stupid, how ignorant, how unquestioning and how barbaric this book actually was and how I had been convinced otherwise. It was so ridiculous it was comical. Then I did some research into other religions and I found they made me laugh too.
We have alot of facts at our disposal and alot of them conflict with what religion has taught and continues to teach. We have alot of questions not yet answered but I am confident that if they are answered it won't be by those who claim not to need proof. It will be by those brave enough to seek out the proof and seek out the answers rather than clutch to the comfort brought by an outdated system of beliefs.

Oh right? Who was I brainwashed by? Its just I was fairly certain I was the one reading the book as opposed to having someone cherry pick it for me and that I was the one who explored other religions... oh and I was the one who got an education and knowledge and then continued to research and learn off my own bat.
Have you actually bothered to read your Bible cover to cover? I'm going to take a wild guess and say no. The idea of someone who says The Bible is 100% all true would accuse me of being ignorant, would accuse me of being herded?
Well, it makes me laugh. :-)
