my old mum got religion when i was 9 years old.
i was taken out of school prayer assembly each morning from age 11---but i accepted the whole thing because "we" were in it--so it must be right. got baptised--at 14----with my dad and several of my mates . left school at 15--went pioneering on and off till i was 21. married a born in at 20--so i could have sex at last.
by 23 i just knew i was annointed-----nooo----i mean--atheist. that was the end of my career in the cult.
