Born into it. Baptized and everything. The hypocrites and the perverts ruined it by not being any nicer, honest, chaste or merciful than the people they bitched about all the time. Turns out you can find better people in any bar you happen to walk into.
Baptized as a baby doesn't mean anything. If you haven't reached the age of accountability and surrendered your life to Christ, it means nothing
It means nothing anyway if I can no longer muster any faith. You probably see that as a moral failing but I really don't care. Religion let me down and my faith was chipped away and finally died while I stood at the side of my mother's deathbed. If I ever see God he will have to beg for my forgiveness. I never asked to be here and I don't have to play a stupid game on the off chance some negligent deity may be pleased with me after I die.
Perhaps such fears could be dispelled if people would discover what the bible actually says about such matters.
God has revealed himself to the church only, not to the majority of humanity. That will come later. "God isn't willing that any should perish...", and has a plan for everyone, but not at this time.
Which is why atheists have murdered more people in the last 2 centuries than any religion.
