I had a wonderful childhood, brought up in the country with lots of love, and with many Christian values, although I didn't realize that at the time.  I was baptised as a baby and attended Sunday school until I was about 12 years old.  Then church seemed very boring and a complete waste of a Sunday morning so I stopped going.

However, I did believe in God and the existance of Jesus, but what that had to do with me and my everyday life I didn't know, and further more I didn't want to know.  Had I have been asked if I was a Christian, I would have said "Yes" after all I lived in a Christian country, I had been baptised as a baby and I was basically a good person. That made me a Christian didn't it?  Whenever I filled in forms which asked the question; What religion are you?  I would write C of E that was my right.  Over the years I had come to the conclusion that anyone who went to church was a hypocrite anyway.  In my view they never seemed to adhere to their own set of values and only went to church for the social cudos it brought them
