How can you be so sure that you haven't migrated to another dark closet?
All of my closets are dark.
But seriously. I was playing for an Easter Vigil service and listening to the readings, and I realized that I didn't believe what I was hearing.
It was a cumulative path, of course. I did some of my own comparative religion reading and philosophy and science and -- it apparently seeped in little by little.
But now I listen to Bible readings without the mindset of "ooh, GOD wrote this" that I was taught as a child. So a lot of it now, I just listen and think "this is absolutely absurd".
