Sandy and I were lucky enough to grow up in the United States with enough room around us to think for ourselves. That’s not a luxury that most of the world has. I was raised in a Catholic family and am now an Atheist in my mid-20s. Sandy came up in a family that was not religious. We have both had the opportunity to live all over the world with people from different religious upbringings and that has allowed us to gain a unique perspective on religion. Just because someone has a different religious point of view doesn’t mean you can’t listen to what they have to say!

 

In this episode, we break down…

• Growing up in a Catholic family vs. a non-religious family
• Different factors that determine someone’s religion
• When people start cherry-picking the bible
• The positive sense of community that comes with religion
• 2 questions that have to be asked
• Why people have a hard time not believing in God
• Living with people of many different religious backgrounds
