Guest SerenityNow Posted June 29, 2005 Share Posted June 29, 2005 I just want to say thanks to all of you for all of your support. You are a great group of people. Thank you Dave for having this site. Finally, I have peace after leaving Christianity. Hell is no longer a fear and I no longer doubt my decision to leave the faith, I've never been happier. However, it's time for me to leave ExC because I want to just enjoy my husband and children. My mind seems to be on what is being debated, ranted, etc., so that even while I'm doing things with them, I'm thinking up a reply. LOL Maybe someday, I can focus on one thing but for now, it's too hard. When I was a Christian my mind was always focused on god and reading the bible. Now as an ExC, my mind is still focused on the bible and god, though in a different way. I do not want that to be a part of my life anymore, I wasted enough years on the bible and god and robbed my family and myself in the process. Anyway, you guys keep staying strong in your unbelief. Maybe in a few months or so I'll check back in to say "hi". Take care and it's been wonderful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ouroboros Posted June 30, 2005 Share Posted June 30, 2005 Yes. You will be missed. Stop by when you get bored. Go to the board when you get bored. Open a topic when you feel myopic. Write a thread when it won't leave your head. Slam, curse and yell, when all seems like hell. No never forget, to go back to ex-Christian.net Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
