My religious transformation was difficult, but I’m grateful to know both sides of the spiritual coin.

 

Religion is a formidable force capable of both division and union — to misunderstand or ignore this power is an injustice to the spirit of humanity.

Agnostics Anonymous - OnFaith: Hi. I’m Lyndsay, and I’m an agnostic. I say this as if I have stepped into an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting because my transition from “believer” to “non-believer” feels somewhat pathologic. The purpose of my story is not proselytism; I simply wish to articulate how difficult and consuming this transformation was for me, and in doing so, hopefully feel less alone.
