I already posted in the vbs thread but yeah.

Raised without religion. My mom was a Protestant and my dad was a Catholic and there was so much blood from the Catholic side that poisoned them both on religion. My dad's parents didn't even show up to the loving wedding lol.

So yeah we were raised with no religion. Our friends growing up had to go to church and if we stayed over at their house for a sleepover they would ask us to go to Sunday school.

My brother and I thought it was stupid as hell but that kid had the best video games and his mom wrapped around his finger so we would still go sleepover there.

What I learned from Sunday school was that coffee with creamer and sugar in enough quantities tastes similar to golden crisp cereal.

I'm extremely lucky I had basically the perfect parents. Discipline but, it wasn't really needed. Maybe they got lucky too? None of us kids were ever a problem and their focus on learning and reading paid off.

They waited to have kids until they were married for years and had roots and were ready for kids which I'm sure helped out with all of that.

My Grandparents on my father's side gave up religion because he came from a Catholic family and she came from a Protestant family and both families forbid them from falling in love.

When they did decide to get married, both sides of their religious families made demands so they ignored them all and started from scratch.

Word. Probably the best thing that ever happened to me... Along with having parents that were in education before it became complete poo poo and raised me to love learning, reading, and being a decent human being.

I feel bad for people in Florida.
