Apart from the wife and kids, I think there are a grand total of 6 people who know about my de-conversion.

I admit it could be different if I had kids, but besides the bare minimum expressions of doubt to explain why I’m not a pastpr anymore, I almost never talk about my atheism to anyone, in real life.

How weird… I’m going to have to pay more attention to what I write from now on.

How specifically was it not the best way? I do respect your for wanting to keep your wife’s peace of mind… now I’m just curious what exactly makes you think it was not the right way in retrospect.

I would have come out right away back in early ’07, but my wife did NOT want that. So for her peace of mind at the time, I went along. In retrospect it was not the best way.

I’m still sticking with more normal stance on de-conversion that tell all early and often is the best way to go. Often fears of coming out are unfounded, and when they are founded it is still best to face them than live under them. Unless, of course, health is more at stake for coming out than for staying hidden.

The oldest kid was home for thanksgiving and the following week. I told him about my religious stance and he took it with no apparent great trouble.
I think being in the military exposes him to a lot of different people of all types, so he doesn’t sweat details too much.
