I'm actually not sure where this topic would go, so I made the safer choice. lol
I am taking Philosophy of Religion this semester and at the beginning of the year, our Professor had us going around the room to introduce ourselves. She gave a list of things that we could talk about in our introduction (all on a voluntary basis) and one of the items was what Religion we adhered to. I was second to last to give my introduction, and it turned out every person in that class was a Christian, even our professor....all except me.
There was even a guy that said he was going to transfer to the same Christian college I de-converted at, so I made sure I mentioned that is where I left the faith. lol
I have been relatively quiet in that class, so far, but I am excited about how hated I am going to be come time we talk about Christianity. So far it has mostly been eastern religions and philosophies (Buddhism, Hinduism, Confucianism and Taoism), but today we started on the Abrahamic faiths with Judaism. I do believe I will have fun with this section, but much more fun when we get to Christianity.

I do not believe in the creed professed by the Jewish Church, by the Roman Church, by the Greek Church, by the Turkish Church, by the Protestant Church, nor by any Church that I know of. My own mind is my own Church. - Thomas Paine, The Age of Reason
