Today I spoke with Bruce Gerencser, who pastored mostly Baptist churches for 25 years until he realized that Christianity is mythology and fiction, and deconverted.
We discussed many topics including:
• Attending Independent Fundamental Baptist (IFB) Churches, starting with Tim LaHaye's church (of the "Left Behind" book series).
• Feeling close to god as he grew up.
• Saying the sinner's prayer at age 5 but rededicating his life as a teenager during a revival service and sharing with his church that he felt called to be a preacher.
• Attending an IFB College to prepare for the ministry.
• Hearing endless sermons about the need to fight against worldliness and sinfulness.
• Thinking that god was leading and directing personally in his life.
• Eventually realizing that the Bible is not inerrant or infallible, and that the Bible is full of errors and contradictions.
• Realizing that Christianity is just mythology, and deconverting.
• Sensing overwhelming peace upon deconversion.
• Observing Christians frequently ostracize and act hateful toward deconverted Christians.
Thanks to Bruce for sharing his story and for his many contributions to the community!
