I notice that their are many athiest and agnostics on this website. I am guessing that many of you went to churches or other religious institutions before making the conversion.
If this is so please list the religion you converted from and the reason you converted or the tennets that you disagreed with that caused your conversion.
If you are a thiest and converted from one religion to another from which to which did you convert and why?
I don't want to be dork and not put my cards on the table up front so here is mine in a quick nutshell.
I started out agnositc causes religion was not presented to me as a child. I tried to make the conversion to Christanity but had issues with the Bible in college and was a Christian for about 18 months to two years fully accepting Christ as my savior and than dropping the notion because
The Bible is full of violence and I can't see my partipation in a religion that is not benovelent
I was not able to accept the ressurection of a man to aid a God
I didn't believe man was born needing to be saved
I couldn't accept that non-belief or uncertainty would warrent damnation.
I became an agonsitic again and than became a Unitarian when I decided
That st thomas Aquinas outside mover arguement had substance
the world /universe was structured
allmost all people irregardless if they exercise it or not have a system or morality
man has a propensity to believe in religion and that is a wierd thing to have if there wasn't a higher power
belief in living creates having souls
