[Diabolical Materialism]

As a kid I went to both Catholic and Primitive Baptist churches. I was baptized in the Catholic Church but was never baptized by the Primitives as they only conduct adult baptisms. I think that conflict between being a member of fairly traditional, and conservative Catholic church (at least by post-Vatican II standards) and what is probably the most hardcore extant Calvinist denomination currently in North America has defined a lot of who I am as a person.

Sometime in middle school I started questioning Christianity and the concept of God in general and never really got over the fundamentals of that debate. I generally consider myself apathetic to the concept of god, and publicly identify as an atheist or agnostic. I still go to Easter, Christmas, and Ash Wednesday mass in addition to the occasional passion play. I guess I'm something of a lapsed Cultural Catholic, but I feel like a Puritan at heart.
