"At the same time I was attending University of Washington studying physics, and starting to doubt the faith I grew up with.
At 24, I took a hiatus from that church to go on tour with a secular band for about a year and a half. When I returned, I found a new church drumming gig. By this time I had come to grips with the fact that I truly don't believe in the god I grew up with"

What influence do you think they had on your deconversion?
Did they raise issues that you did not feel equipped to answer?
