When I first denounced Judaism which was an important part of my life, I felt very angry because God was not there to protect me. I had dedicated so much time to a lie and therefore hated religion and theism. While I am an avid scientific skeptic and anti-theist, I do not feel any hatred or anger towards religion or gods. I feel free and liberated from the restraints of religion and belief in a god, so naturally I'm not upset anymore.
