Non-Believer Former Members of the Worldwide Church of God

Hi, I just saw your blog… I grew up in “the church” from birth (I was even born during the feast of tabernacles) its nice to know I’m not the only one jaded by the twisted logic they drilled in. I was born in 1985 and attended till I was about 10 or 12 years old, When it got more and more obvious that it wasn’t a good place to be… I had to fake sick every saturday till my parents got the hint. The rest of my family stopped going shortly after, except my grandmother, who actually still goes now. I consider myself agnostic now, and although I understand that organized religion can help some people, I know it is not for me.

I am studying as a psychologist, and I guess I can attribute my ability to understand and handle peoples life problems to the very odd, secluded upbringing of WCG.

Just wanted to say hi, you can post this if you want, just please leave my email out since I am usually too swamped with school work to respond =)
