[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Could you share some everyday happy memories from childhood?

Also, do you identify a particular turning point in your life where your own skepticism started and set you on a path to leave when you got the chance?[/quote]

My parents left when I was 18 and that was my exit, we left as a family. I don't know if I would have left and walked away from my family and friends. It is so insular and isolating and all you know. For us, even churches were a really evil place. There was nowhere good, except in the group. Even though i didn't like lots of aspects of it and the rules, I held the same foundational belief system and I believed that no matter how bad it was it was still a 1000x times better than life outside the group. The non group world was a scary place.[/quote]

Could you explain a bit more what do you mean, your parents left?  You mean they left the sect/religious group and you all went with them? So when they left, where did you all go? And how was adopting to new lifestyle?[/quote]
