Is There Anybody on Fluther that used to be Baptist and now professes to be Agnostic?

Please, serious thought provoking and discussion building answers only please. I am not looking to start a fight about my beliefs or the beliefs of others. I do not wish to have this be a flame war. If this happens, I hope that a mod will smite thee with the “forgetting stick” (can you tell that i just watched MegaMind for the first time tonight?).

A person that I consider a friend recently posted on his “wall” in facebook that he considers himself to be Agnostic, or an atheist if you refer to the God of the Bible. He grew up in the church that my wife is in love with, graduated high school from the same church school that my oldest son is in, and yet claims to be this way, after moving his family away to D.C. and attending Georgetown Law during this time. You know, fine. I am not going to judge one way or the other on this one (you know, he who is without sin…). I wish him the best of luck.

My question is: How can one get from point A to point B in a similar situation as the friend of mine? How can someone who was a fervent supporter of all things Christian move on to become agnostic?

If this is you, please describe your thinking process. I am not intending this to be a nasty-gram like so many religion threads on this board become. I am not looking to convert or reaffirm a long-held faith. I just cannot follow the thought process involve.

I really appreciate the time that it took to keep reading this and especially if you decide to participate int what I hope will be an awesome interaction. Thank you very much.
