Mine was probably when I relapsed towards religion at age 15-16 and joined my mom’s conservative megachurch, naïvely thinking I can convince them to be less bigoted and more “christ-like” as well as accept science

    @op looking back, what was the specific cringe aspect of what you described in your story?

    that you’d hope for this seemingly impossible outcome, of being a positive force in an established group with a clear bigoted direction?

    or that you feel foolish for relapsing into believing religious topics again?

    or something else?
