If I may toot my own shofar, a few of the posts I like best:
I saw some inconsistencies early on. I even asked Sister Mary Esther how we knew that our god was the real deal (Catholic school for a couple of years). She further helped me doubt my faith by answering; "WE JUST KNOW". Now I wonder if she had her own doubts. A lot of other teachers would have snowballed a 3rd grader with all sorts of rhetoric.
I didn't totally let go of god until high school. It was a journey.
I like hearing about the JW stuff. My wife is a recovering Mormon. Each faith has its own idiosyncrasies that are interesting to hear about.
