8. Grew up in a liberal home, but Grandfather was a bit fundy. Went
to several conservative churches over the years, but different enough from each other that my little kid's brain must have realized that when they say "We are the only way to Heaven. We are the Right Way to live" and yet contradict each other, well, there's something wrong with that picture.

Tried to be a good little conservative evangelical girl in HS because I was desperate for SOMETHING to make me feel better about myself. Didn't work and I gave it up, but not before I snagged me a boyfriend whose father is a conservative evangelical minister.

So, I ended up marrying the boyfriend and am still with him today. There is a bit of friction from our different view points on faith.
More on that here: http://www.livejournal.com/users/gpv/324.html
