    When I went to boot camp, every Sunday was religious day. I started the Atheist & Agnostic group with two other recruits in the cycle. We’d chat about science and philosophy. They got us some books and whatnot.

    Eventually had a pastor from the Church of Christ come in to chat with us and try to debunk some of our science talks with that Bible knowledge: carbon dating isn’t real, dinosaurs are only 3000 years old, that kind of thing.

    He eventually won me over though, because church of Christ gave bread and grape juice at every service, and extra chow in boot camp was hard to come by. Almost like real life…
