Like you, I was about 9 or 10 when I started thinking the bible stories were seeming more and more like the santa clause and easter bunny stories.. and then there was the faith-sanctioned hate and all, which just didn't make sense to me. So un-christian, heh.. Anyways, thanks for saying hi!
Thank you for your interest in the fund raising group. Currently we are still in the early formation stage, and not ready for more members yet. Best wishes and thank you any way.
