VIDEO: Packers QB Aaron Rodgers Discusses Being an Atheist on Girlfriend Danica Patrick's Podcast

A couple of weeks ago, former stock car racer Danica Patrick revealed she was dropping an interview with boyfriend and Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers on her podcast, "Pretty Intense." The podcast featured a variety of topics, one of them being religion, of all things. It was at that point when Rodgers went into a deep discussion as to why he's an atheist.

Rodgers revealed he was raised in a Christian family, and actively went to church as a child. In fact, he was a member of the Christian ministry's Young Life group. Once he got older, he began questioning the religion, especially in terms of the interpretation of the Bible.

Most notably, he questioned why people believe in God, who he says wants to "condemn most of the planet to a fiery hell."

It took a lot of guts for Rodgers to speak on such a sensitive topic, and it will definitely make its rounds in the news in the coming days.
