==Biography==
Hemant Mehta was born in Chicago, Illinois in 1983.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://ffrf.org/news/day/25/02/freethought/#hemant-mehta )〕 He graduated from the University of Illinois at Chicago in 2004 with a double degree in math and biology and began teaching in 2007. He acquired a master's degree in math education from DePaul University in 2010 and a national board certification in teaching in 2012. He taught high school math in Naperville, Illinois〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://illinois-teachers.findthedata.org/l/74349/Hemant-Mehta )〕 until recently when he announced on Facebook and his blog that he had submitted his resignation to the school, citing that "As much as I love being in the classroom, the opportunities online are just a lot greater right now, and I don’t want to have any regrets down the road about not taking this chance while I have it."
Mehta was raised in the Jain faith, which purportedly led to his current vegetarian diet. He became an atheist as a teenager. Seeking to learn more about what motivated many Americans to be religious, he decided to attend and take notes at a number of churches across the United States. He based his choice of churches to attend on the results of an eBay auction in which he offered his bidders, ”I am an atheist. You can bid on where I go to church or a temple or a mosque, etc." Mehta's experiences at the churches became the basis for his book, ''I Sold My Soul on eBay''.
