How did the journey start?
Parsons says he became an atheist at the age of five when he found out his parents had lied to him about the existence of Santa Claus.

Explaining that he believes people have the power to create heaven or hell on earth, he says being in an unhappy marriage is like living in hell. By bringing our best selves into a partnership, paradise can be experienced through passion, meeting one another’s needs, sharing values, and understanding one another. These, he says, are key...
