thanks so much.

Grew up with a dad as a minister.
Decided at about 11 yo old it was all nonsense.
Engaged in vicious family fights over it for years, 'cause I was "just a kid," and how could I possibly know my mind?
Eventually got thrown out of house, over lack of belief in magic people in sky, and their appointed speakers.
Entirely happy, healthy, respected non-believer, 50 years later.
Go figure ....
