So my question is, why would God deconvert me? Why be un-revealed? I didn't do anything to deliberately make this happen I just noticed after awhile at the age of 14 or 15 that it was a pile of old bollocks. All of it, simply nonsense that didn't stack up.
I don't think you can blame God for giving you free will. It was your decision. If you wish to share, I would like to know if there was a "trigger" that led you to non-belief?

It had nothing to do with free will, I didn't choose to notice that the whole Christian thing is a made up children's story. It was a reverse revelation.
I am not trying to be cute or trick you but I seriously would like to know where you think this "reverse revelation" came from.

How can you believe in something that you know is obvious nonsense?
Is this something that is nonsense the religlion your were practicing, or the God it was devoted to or both?
