I was brought up as a Reformed/Calvinist christian, I never could fully believe even as a child. Today I consider myself an agnostic atheist. I don't say that there definitely is no god or a higher power because I don't know, but for now I assume there isn't.

I don't want to convert anyone or take their faith away, so I only talk about my reasons for not believing if people try to convince me to believe.
