Both of my parents would say they were atheists, so where I inherited my connection to God I don't know. But it's natural. No Bible, no Torah, just the love religion.

My parents were atheists, strong atheists. I never got the answer 'God.'

I'm a shy person. I don't know if it's in my DNA to share with the world.

It is an interesting and demonstrable fact, that all children are atheists and were religion not inculcated into their minds, they would remain so.

I was literally the black sheep of the family, and there were definitely moments of discomfort while my grandmother was working through her racism.

The word 'God' is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honorable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation, no matter how subtle, can (for me) change this.
