1977 - As a Catholic, I read the New Testament, realized all the additions Catholicism had made over the centuries (hundreds of years after the first apostles died) and became Lutheran. Well, its an important year for me!
For me, it was 1970. I had joined the USAF, in 1967. I got away from mom and dad, and really started living in sin. After a couple of years, a few guys I knew, handed me a Bible. I started to read it, and in a few weeks, I learned that either the Bible was right, or the Catholic Church was right, but certainly not both. So, I left the one true church, never to return. 😁👍 There are many ex Catholics around. 🤣
