text: someone who is like me? when i was a child i was strongly christian believer. on age of 15 i totally rejected christianity and turn to buddhism. someone else in here like me? what was your reasons? sure. by my mid to late teenage years, i switched from roman catholicism (born and raised) to born again, baptist, wiccan, neo-pagan, and then now, many years later, to buddhism.  i can easily say now that i've found what i have been searching for all these years.  i hope your search brings you peace. :)
