Introduction
If one tells the truth, one is sure, sooner or later, to be found out.
How/when did you become an atheist?
Started asking the right questions at 13. Now I regularly listen to podcasts from Sam Harris, Richard Dawkins, Freedom From Religion Foundation, etc. - as I clearly notice the damaging effects religion is having on our country and the world.

"Daisy - but you have to admit leaving the bible and the currency that was actually a verse from scripture was rather over the top. I've never heard of an Atheist leaving a quote from Darwin as a tip...."
