I'm often confused by the idea of conversion. I mean, I can understand when there are tangible advantages for doing so - like getting church benefits or avoiding persecution or discrimination. But simply swapping one set of silly beliefs for another makes no sense to me.
Education and critical thinking mostly.
Be warned - I make no such promises. About the mocking, I mean.
The practices. The theology. The boring mythology.
No questions - just the right answers. Which is why I left.
Your turn now - why are you leaving the faith of your ancestors?
