While it wasn’t really the start of my atheism, I track the roots of my formal break with organised religion to just this: wondering why I was voluntarily spending time sitting in a stuffy room listening to an angry guy scolding me and the others for being horrible ingrates.
As a teenager I started just walking out on the sermons, and then just decided to skip the services altogether.

I think, Yes, he’s reminding us that, even if we are not suffering, there are plenty of others who are, so keep that in mind, christians.
But No, it was just another pile of steaming shit: sure, there are plenty of others who are suffering. But they are suffering because they are non-christians.
You can lead a pastor to logic, but you can not make him think.
