"So
I'd been to boys boarding schools and camps with Christians... fairly
evangelical Christians, but I began to question this and wonder whether
God really intended to cast three quarters of human kind into utter
darkness because they had never heard of him and none of the Christians I
talked to could quite explain what his intention was in creating such a
situation.
So I lost my formal faith, but in anthropology I found
an alternative which explains much of what goes on in the world without
having to induce God."
