I live in Kentucky and so there is religion everywhere, yet my parents were never too crazy, probably because they both were gay by the time I was a year old.

I've studied both wave mechanics and matrix mechanics, especially Dirac notation and I've learned everything from photon polarization to spin, to unitary evolution and I've seen the Schrodinger equation beyond count. I do wish to step out of the baby maths, and into subjects such as topology and their applications too in Quantum Mechanics.
That's an excellent choice of interests
I admire your goal of becoming a polymath, all you need to do is find a career that allows you to do that.
I have a PhD in Quantum Field Theory, and I have a QFT textbook out since last summer. You're welcome to pester me with questions. I can't promise to know everything though

Brilliant! I wouldn't exactly call the unitary evolution in Hilbert space baby maths... but I see what you want.
Have you considered learning differential geometry and general relativity? That would seem like a logical step.
