I was raised an athiest, but I read the bible and to be honest I don't see a big conflict between the two.
Organized religion likes to pick certain political stances and use them to rally the ignorant masses. It says in the bible that what others do isn't really your concern we're each on our own when it comes to God, but religious leaders can't get your attention until they attack abortion or porn or evolution, it just comes down to marketing.
Do what I do, when people say they think I'm evil I say "Yep." I figure if I'm going to hell I'm going to deserve it.
