    I am (well, probably now ‘was’. Birthdays suck) a young ex-church goer. I am young enough to bounce back and re-learn how the world works.

    My mom is 56. She can’t bounce back and learn a whole new world.

      Congrats!

      I was lucky enough to grow up with parents who let me figure things out on my own without trying to indoctrinate me. I had a very brief flirtation with religion in my teens (thanks to a girl) but grew out of it real fast.

      I’m glad you managed to get out.
