[Theism]-->[Insert X]-->[Agnostic Atheism]

RE: [Theism]-->[Insert X]-->[Agnostic Atheism]
My parents attempted to indoctrinate me into liberal non denominational christian. I was skeptic from a very very young age. They did not hold very strong beliefs but lack the ability to lose their thiesm. (my dad says why would the calender be reset for jesus if he wasnt true. I have still yet to point out that the catholic church invented the gregorian calender so they get to make the rules for it) (my mom doesnt see how a baby can form without gods help and has no understanding of biology).

So i went from
Liberal xtian (never believed it but didnt have a replacement)
agnostic
non-theistic Buddhism
agnostic
atheist
secular humanist / athiest.

The journey was relatively easy and if i had any assistance other then books and the Internets it would of gone a lot quicker. I had to find most of the information myself as my community is very conservative. I found some good reasoning in Buddhism and it helped me overcome a very emotional breakup. I still agree with some of the tenets of Buddhism. My agnostic-> atheist breakthrough came with the God: the failed hypothesis. Since then i have been read most of the popular skeptic literature.
