Christianity Made Me Talk Like an Idiot by Seth Andrew
Seth Andrews wasn't an idiot during his thirty years as an evangelical Christian. He wasn't unintelligent, nor did his IQ shift when he ultimately left religion entirely. He considered himself thoughtful, moral, reasonable, and at least as smart as the average person. In other words, he wasn't an idiot. Yet strangely, he often sounded like one. In any other context, Christians would likely smirk, scoff, or recoil at many of their normal beliefs and practices: reenacted Easter crucifixions, eating monthly communion flesh, singing hymns about being washed in blood, and the embrace of a Bible containing scripture verses about golden hemorrhoids, apocalypse dragons, and human sacrifice, So what gives? Are these notions embraced only because they're familiar? Do they make any sense? And do they cause otherwise reasonable people to sound like idiots? Seth Andrews admits that, for himself, the answer was a definite yes. For everyone else? Read the book and decide.Seth Andrews is an author, videographer, radio host, public speaker, and the founder of one of the world's largest online secular communities. Seth, who was once a devout member of the flock, eventually drifted away from fundamentalist Christianity and now looks at sacred claims and practices with a humorous eye. He reminds his audience, with a mix of humor and passion, that ideas (even those thought to be untouchable) are fair game for inspection, and that those claiming The Answer should expect a few more questions. After all, we only cease discovering when we stop questioning.
