Welcome home! And don't feel too bad about challenging the faith of others. Faith is like anything else. In order for it to be strong, it needs to be challenged and exercised. I can't tell you how much my faith has been strengthened just from arguing with Atheists!

Great to see The Lord at work. Without starting a controversy, did the debates that you ingaged in have any bearing or influence on your turning around on your views concerning God? Were they a help, hinderance, or no bearing at all?
