I liked the poetic nature of your piece. I didn't necessarily agree with the philosophy behind it, but it sounded nice.
I am not 12, so the vocabulary was within my grasp and I liked the way you avoided the typical unsophisticated bantering one tends to find in works such as this.
I release you now from my keep. You, crutch of the mind, fetter of my soul. I no longer tread the crude paths you once preached; I am no longer driven by your will. I toss you now, to die among your kind--the tissues, the magazines, the papers, to be processed and reused and made into something of use: a notebook, perhaps, for the recording of my own thoughts.
I liked this paragraph. It was a good "fight the power" section.
Reading on, it seems as though you have experienced a climatic rebellion from the church, throwing out stiff, moral overriding influence. I've had a similar experience, but I haven't given up on God, quite as much as you have.
I feel sorry for you, but good luck.
