easiest way to turn people away is to make em actually read that dumbshit themselves, there's a reason priests pick and choose a couple snippets every week...
Yeah, i went to a private Catholic school. Everyone of us laughed at the bible.
Indeed, I had the benfit of agnostic parents and no forced church time, but I remember reading the bible a bit around 11-12 years old and thinking it was insane people believe that shit is real.
