Hi,
You know, I woke up one morning, and I saw the light. Well actually, I found the light switch. I turned it on, and once I could see in the previously dark room, I saw that nothing was there. There are no monsters hidden under my bed.
It felt so liberating knowing there is no god, and what we see is what we get!
Because I'm a rational person, and very into science and philosophy, the only way to live with myself was to stop lying to myself and try to see past the mystics and lies of christianity.
I love your site. It keeps me reading for hours and hours, it's great!
Regards,
Jasper Klewer
