Well, after learning the truth about the Watchtower and their teachings I was floored, but funnily enough I wasn't surprised. Even though I was raised in it and believed it, I had many questions along the way that never got answered and certain things made me uncomfortable and the fact I was gay put me in a very bad position. I knew I was gay before I was old enough to understand what the society teaches about it. Actually, the only thing that surprised me was the UN thing.
Once the Watchtowers lies were revealed, for me instead of looking to other faith systems, the next logical step was to research the origins of the bible itself and the stories it contained. Well, it didn't really take long to discover that the bible was basically full of crap only with a hint of truth in certain places as far as some people and locations. I was still willing to believe in god, but the more I learnt I just couldn't anymore as I actually started to care if my beliefs were true.
So unless one day it is proven beyond doubt that a god exists (not necessarily the christian one as he's a psycho and jesus ain't much better), then I will remain atheist.
