101. Never went to a church as a kid
both of my parents were atheists. I've been to one all of three times since becoming an adult, and it seemed truly bizarre. The music was awful (Christian "rock"), and the sermons seemed so hateful, full of fire and brimstone (I went to some baptist Churches with friends). I guess it was because of my secular upbringing, but it just blew my mind to think that so many people in that building really believed in what I had always been taught was a "myth".

Oddly enough, my mother became a RW born again after I left home, though she almost never talks about it with me.
