You could say that I grew up in a godless household.
My parents followed no particular religious system or ever forced us to attend any kind of worship service.
In general, I’m blissful that I was not pushed into the box created by religion. However, from time to time I wish that I had more scripture ammo on my side when people started getting strangely judgmental with me. Living in the South, I often encounter people with rather radical Christian beliefs… Unluckyly, this can happen anywhere, from the grocery store to the comfort of my own house. I found this out the strenuous way last weekwhen even my central heating, cooling, plus ventilation control specialist had something to say about my life of sin. Namely, that my lack of Christian values was the cause of my central heating, cooling, plus ventilation device breakdown. If you’re unsure how Christianity is connected to heating plus cooling equipment, that makes two of us. The problem all started when my a/c device wasn’t responding properly to my control device setting swings… Every time I adjusted the indoor air temperature lower my A/C device made a awful sound before it stopped pumping any cool indoor air through the vents whatsoever. I called out my local HVAC service shop plus asked for an emergency HVAC inspection. When the heating plus cooling specialist arrived he had a different look on his face. He could not get out of the household quick enough to inspect the a/c unit. When the A/C service was done he reported back with the bill in hand… And just had to mention that my lack of religious insignia couldn’t be helping my indoor air quality.
