I was raised a Catholic and had gone to a Catholic school for my elementary and middle school years. But I've recently became an agnostic atheist - and it's not because of influence.

I'm actually an Agnostic Atheist now, hah. xD

My mother tried to raise me as part of the Lutheran church. I couldn't see eye-to-eye with the Christian religion due their treatment of the LGBT community (as I am bisexual and got so much hate for it from others) so I split from it a few years ago and went on to becoming a neo-pagan that worships the Norse gods.

That is true, and one of these examples is this article I've read about British women converting to Islam: www.theguardian.com/world/2013…

As a "Christian Universalist" (for lack of better term... I don't agree with all other Christian Universalists) and not going to any church or belonging to any group, I can definitely understand being uncomfortable talking to anyone I don't know very well about what I believe.

Yes, there's so much judgmental attitudes surrounding anything to do with religion or lack thereof it seems.

Also, my boyfriend is an atheist. Doesn't bother me a bit.

Or is it Agnostic Theist.

I think theist, but I get your drift. I guess that's sorta me too.

And naturally, the reverse is true - Not all ex-_________ are ________, they may be Christians.
Many ex-atheists are Christians.

Indeed, although in my country, the assumption is that ex-atheists are usually Christians and ex-Christians are usually atheists. We tend to forget how many other possibilities they are, which is what this stamp is about.

Agnostic-humanist and spiritualist. c: (I hate the label that, just because I don't believe that a deity made us or controls our plain of existence in any way, that doesn't mean I don't believe in spirits or afterlives. There is plenty of evidence to prove the existence of ghosts, after all~)

OMG, thank you! This is the reason that I don't go to atheist groups for being ex-Christian.

OMG Thank you for this! I mean yes, technically I'm considered an atheist, but I identify more as agnostic animist and spiritualist than I do with atheist.
I'm also a little fascinated with pagan-esque beliefs, but it could be because I like the idea of there being some sort of spirituality and magic, and personally not believing in a soul or a life after death doesn't sit well with me.

There's nothing wrong with having a bunch of labels to explain what you are.

Secular Humanist!
But honestly, the point in the stamp I like the most is that you can be Ex-Christian if you've converted to a different religion. It's important to remember, given the connotations of the word ex-Christian!

I really liked that, too, when I was asked to do it as a commission.
