I spent 18 years in church. The later half of my senior year in high school I participated in a small group of my peers. That group helped me out in many ways, although, none of which was the purpose it set out to do. I then started reading lots of books. I started to realize that Christianity didn't add up to me. I swore I would never become one of those "retired" christians that I would run into on message boards and in school, but, here I am. I guess now I would consider myself a theistic agnostic, or a modern deist. I believe there is a god, but beyond that, I don't know. I figure as long as I keep searching, I won't find the truth, but it will find me.
If you are ever bored, "A history of Christian Thought" by Paul Tillich is an incredible book. Tillich is considered on of the most prominent Christian philosophers of this century.... or, last century. Take care.
