11. Interesting
Before I moved down here, I went from an I-could-care-less-about-religion agnostic to an angry uppity atheist because of the way * and his cabal stirred up religious hatred toward atheists and non-christians. I hadn't realized it still existed in such quantity until then.


When I first lost my faith I was a very passive "don't care about religion/the religious" atheist. I treated religion as I did sports--I'm not interested, I don't care, I don't pay attention.

Then * and the RW whackjobs came along and things changed. There were people who were trying to take over the country and they were using their religion to do it. Suddenly I could no longer be the passive, uninvolved atheist. I had to fight back or suffer the consequences.
