Cody Robinson
Name: Cody Robinson DOB: 1985 Location: Denver, CO Label: Atheist Former Religious Affiliation: Protestant Christian (Non-Denominational) My Story: I was raised Christian and, at times, felt like I was the most devout person in my immediate family.

Name: Tanner Lloyd Born: May 20th, 1993 Location: Seattle, WA Label: Secular Humanistic Atheist Former Religious Affiliation: Non-Denominational Evangelical Christianity My Story: I was raised in an essentially evangelical environment having a lasting interest in Christian apologetics from creationism to the existence of god. This interest built in the last years of middle school such that I found myself arguing with complete strangers on the internet about these things, pressing my case very strongly. It was then at the beginning of high school that I changed my mind about God and...
