I was raised by one, which was so bizarre because he was an otherwise intelligent and articulate person. Could have easily been a college professor but instead chose to waste his time on religion.

He claims he never stopped believing, but when the world didn't actually end on October 21, 2011, he picked up drinking and smoking and started wasting money on $20 scratcher tickets. Stopped reading the Bible every day as well, and eventually turned a MAGA republican near the end. Then on September 30, 2021 he was killed by an intoxicated driver, while crossing the street to buy a scratcher and cigarettes, a few days after brain surgery.

This is what religion does to you. It gets you fucking killed.
