I grew up a Jehovah's Witness and disabled. I constantly heard how once the "new system" came by disability would be healed. My grandmother would constantly talk about how terrible everything is from all the "worldly people". My parents divorced when I was a teenager. They quickly shunned my mother and us. Then again after our grandmothers death (who went to the church.. religiously), we heard nothing from them. They don't care about anyone but themselves.

Anyway, once I started Earth Science in high school and learned how old everything really is, how large space is and how truly small and insignificant we are to the universe. It put it all into perspective and now I'm pretty much an Atheist. I know I don't truly know what is out there, or who created us. But I know it wasn't some dude that did it just to set us up to fail. So why should I have any belief in that?
