I am an Atheist and always have been

My Grandmother used to make me go to church dressed in best clothes. I am almost certain the church was of the Protestant denomination, Church of England?
The only thing more boring I have experienced in my life was attending a piano recital at the Sydney Opera House whilst on a school trip in 1975. (I fell asleep during the performance)
What did I get out of going to church? Reinforcement that religion was super boring.
If I remember correctly..."for God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son so that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life."

Whenever I see a sermon I'm like yeah, this is for people who can't derive morality through the golden rule and observation. And need someone else to tell them how to divine right from wrong. Of course this isn't the only reason people do church. Just a thought I had during a Valentine's Day sermon I was present for at a religious affair.
