Facepalm

I'm assuming you have no religious trauma. I do, have read 100% of bible across 3 months when I discovered the problem of evil on my own (not hard, very basic contradiction) after a very well loved kid in my school (who I didn't personally know) died tragically and painfully and my youth minister's answers didn't cut it. The only think of value I gained is knowing the church is full of shit and I could safely move on with my life ignoring all I'd ever been taught. If I want to learn of a culture, I'd rather read their literature than curated mythologies used to exalt patriarchies.
