Welcome to the FIRST episode of the Confusianity podcast.  In this inaugural episode, we (2 preacher's kids) share our deconversion stories... how and why we left Christianity.  

It is no small feat to leave religion, which is often why religious people never actually make that leap of NONfaith.  Even though things don’t feel quite right, we tend to stick with what we were raised with… because it’s our identity, our upbringing, our heritage, our family, our social network, our mindset, our values, hell… it is our eternal destiny after we die.  It is, frankly… everything. 

And how do you leave everything behind or why would you want to?  Well… because for some of us, the truth is shouting so loud in our face, we cannot ignore it any longer.  We cannot go on living what feels like a lie… and even though we don’t have any clue what it’s like to NOT be Christian, we deem the new abyss worthy of exploring… and whether diving in headfirst or just dipping our toes in to feel it out… one way or another… we choose this other path.
