Growing up I only ever saw church and religion on TV and never really thought much of it. One day as kids my mom pulled my brother and I aside and asked us, "It doesn't really make any sense for there to be a bearded man in the sky, does it?" That's all I really needed to hear to be science-minded for the rest of my life.

I'm a little jealous of people who grew up with church communities though. There's lots of good people out there, even if it's for the wrong reasons.

Don't be jealous of us. Not when I sometimes wake up at night from a dream when I am in hell or can just sit there for hours replaying the repeated physical abuse and it takes everything I have to not track those people down and "have a conversation with them".

The recovery from religion foundation has been a big help.
