@DrFerrous@hachyderm.io Calling it "evolution" was apt for me while I progressed away from young-earth creationism to old-earth evolutionary creationism and conservative politics to left-wing, all while remaining a Christian. But once I left it behind, the actual "tearing down" of the evangelical ways of thinking I was brought up with has required this "deconstruction." Even after 10 years of being an atheist I still have to catch myself sometimes to avoid old thought patterns.
