About Me

I come from a Protestant family. My father was a Theologian and Professor at the Free University in Brussels. I have eight brothers and three sisters. Three of the brothers have become Protestant Ministers and the other brothers became scientists and non-believers. My sisters have adopted alternative beliefs which do less harm than religion. So discussions about religion are common during family gatherings. At the age of 16 I became aware that religion was guilty of unacceptable childhood indoctrination and I quickly realized that any basis for religious belief was non-existent. My love for nature and the urge to understand more about the world we live in was an important motivation for me to study geology. I have to add that growing up in a large family has allowed me to think and discuss freely about any subject and that has saved me from the religious indoctrination people normally are subjected to.
