It has been a long while since I have become an atheist. My memory has become hazy to the exact moment when I realized that religion was merely a tool for fools to hold on to as a final desperation to figure out why the hell it all went wrong, how God has forsaken them and left them to rot on the awesome planet known as Earth.
It all started in around Year 3-4, where I was enclosed in a totalitarian environment known as a Catholic Primary School where I learnt many important lessons in life such as:
-Asians are superior at maths. Proven because the top maths class all consisted of Asians.
-Everyone hates Quoc. At least the teachers do.
-Jesus is fucking awesome. He loved everyone even though many hated his guts and wanted him to get crucified and die like a common dog. Also because he had hax reincarnation powers like a shaman, could conjure food/water like a mage, wreak destruction in the temple of god like a warlock and control the populace with his cheesy good looks like a priest mind controlling a humanoid.
He was prepared.
-Pokemon > Jesus. Some ass had to bring in Pokemon Blue with all 151 Pokemon to school. He became the most popular kid in school for a while until some idiot flogged his cartridge and with that, his popularity. Also Pokemon cards became the rage. Everyone loved Charizard because of his leet attack.
This was the time when many of my friends were ditching this prison to other more awesome places. This girl ditched to some place because her parents had to move to some far away suburb to find work, this other girl had to leave because of the endless teasing she had to endure, this guy got a "Get out of Jail free" card and made it to O.C. and this other guy had to go overseas because of parents.
Fun times.
Either way one day, while I was playing basketball with some randoms from the same year some idiot had to find out that I was a buddhist and piss me off about it. Childish banter, but it managed to pop a major vein in my head and I responded with equal force.
I merely falconed that poor kid, who fell to the ground crying like a starving newborn. His friend being the pussy he was, went off to find a teacher to dob on me.
End result? Another call for parents. Awesome.
At the end of the day, my view on Catholics as being kind tolerant people diminished significantly. Then I wondered how they could be so intolerant to my awesome religion known as Buddhism. In the end it came down to the fact that they followed the bible literally, that anyone who doesn't follow God's word has to be an infidel and must be smite down and cast aside for the true people to settle in the holy lands.
Then again I also reasoned that they were dumbasses because they sucked at Maths, English and possibly every subject taught then at school.
In conclusion to this badly thought out argument: Religion sucks, it's quite contradictory and it's quite general and can lead to shit happening like holy wars and planes falling from the sky.
Clearly I'm still bitter. I should go back to studying.
It was nice wasting your time.

looks like your future is bright, with the ever growing number of atheists
Unless God goes "I am God and I approve this message" whenever someone makes an opinion, it doesn't count...
Anyhow, really, you shouldn't deny God exists just because people were stupid and close-minded, or else you're just being like them, and that's not what you want.
You are very entertaining.
