"So when I started studying theology, the last thing I wanted to do was find…the Wendy’s of religions. I was just writing a research paper for a college class, and I was content with dabbling. So, some McNuggets here, BK Whopper over there, whatever fit the mood. As I studied the genres, McD, BK, InNOut, i.e., Mormonism, Scientology, Islam, Buddhism, as I got closer to God through genre and rigorous study, as I worked on my personal relationship with Heavenly Father, and I think strengthened it, do you know what I found? The more you know, the less you know. And by the time I was 50, I was malnourished from the fast food of religion I’d been packing into my brain for the best part of a decade. Every sect, cult, creed, denomination all claimed to be the one, true doctrine, and yet none seemed true when held under the microscope. So I wondered what else was out there. I promise you, the last thing I wanted to do was find the one true religion. But unfortunately, I did."
