I have copies of a dozen religious texts on the shelves of my mini-library, spanning many religions.
Consider this: why would someone living in the present want to understand history? Why would someone who lives in the US want to study China?

Consider this, Had you 'not' been raised that way and were an atheist now, would you still want to learn all about Christianity??? Doubt it. All I've seen from you is utter contempt, now I understand why. You had it shoved down your throat.....my experience was just the opposite.
