back when i was 13ish i came to the conclusion that i thought all religions were wrong. so i went from questioning which religion was accurate, to not believing any of them.

Yes I have, went from being catholic to atheist. I finally found peace in my life once I made that leap.

when your only options are an eternity of suffering because you didn't beg forgiveness 24/7 to a god that unquestionably loves to hate you or simple black nonexistence, i can see why you picked the option you picked :P

When I was young I used to be an atheist, but as I'm getting older, I'm starting to believe in God and have more and more "faith". Does that count?

Doesnt it defeat the object of religion if you keep swapping and changing? Big_Bad_Sad

Does changing from Catholicism to Atheism count as changing a religion?GeForce2187

Join any religon you want.

I was a Christian, but I had a problem with interpreting the Bible to be in line with my view of God, which was different than how he was in portrayed in the Bible, nevermind the scientific and moral flaws within the Bible itself. I couldn't believe in the God of the Bible nor could I believe in the God I had created because I had created him, so I became both an atheist and a naturalist.

if you want to experience new things, a new religion is likely the last thing that needs changing in your life.

Unless it is stopping you from eating meat or drinking beer; in that case, just default to agnosticism for a while til you find something right.

catholic to agnostic.

Fundamentalist christian to atheist. Talk about a load off. . .

I can't even remember my current religion.

My family is Church of England but then i saw Star wars and I am now a Jedi :)

Agnostic to Christian count?

i think i was always a atheist:D

I am considering it actually.

I don't have that peace, but I do have the different mindset. It's so much easier to evaluate people's actions once you strip yourself of religious motives.

Several times, though not really consciously at the time.

Yup, from atheist to Hellenistic, to Roman Polytheism.

I changed from a fundamentalist Christian, to a moderate Christian, to a deist and finally to an atheist.Lonelynight

That's funny because I went from a moderate Christian to an athiest (which I believe is a religion) to a deep rooted Christian.

I went from being Agnostic to a Christian. :)

Used to be Lutheran, changed to Agnostic, now I'm an agnostic atheist and I have somewhat of an interest in Taoism. I don't think I could ever go back to a deistic religion, though.
