The story generally goes that they grew up in churches and heard the usual nice stories in the Bible about Jesus healing the blind and teaching people to care about the poor. They heard the stories of amazing Bible heroes like young David defeating the giant Goliath and saw the children's artwork depicting the story of a Santa Claus-like looking Noah with smiling ...
