I Am An Atheist

This isn't the most exciting of stories, but I want to rant a little bit. So scroll along.

Last Sunday my father woke me up early so I could attend his church- I thought we had an unspoken agreement that after I turned eighteen I was done with that mess, but nah. Long story short, I ended up going.

In the meeting, a family wanted their newborn daughter to be blessed. So, the father and some other dudes went up, circled the baby, and began their prayer. Summed up, it was, "May she get a testimony, find a man of the church, get married in the temple, and have children."

I dunno. It kind of sucks to grow up being told that that's your purpose in life.

Yes, I think there will be something to replace religion but I don't imagine it will involve churches or a belief in God. You can't call it a religion then since the definition of a religion is a belief in a God or Gods. But yeah, there will be something.
