It was this guy I was dating (non-Jdub) at the end of last year that got me to really start thinking (I had begun dating a "worldly" guy in the first place because I was already starting to think twice about things). He was asking questions about my religion and as I was explaining them, several times he just busted out laughing. I was hurt at the time, but now everyday I see more and more how ridiculous it all sounds.
Hey, Girl -
That is exactly how it happened for me 30+ years ago - when you try to explain this stuff to someone on the outside, you realize how totally laughable it is...............
