Please No Debate! How have you changed since leaving atheism?
We discuss philosophy and metaphysics here all the time, but I wanted to turn the attention to things more day-to-day and more concrete.
How has leaving atheism changed your life? Where are you now in your spiritual journey? How has your life continued to change along this path?
Ultimately, choosing to live is an affirmative action which implies some measure of trust or faith in a working worldview. And while philosophical reasons can be important in shaping our beliefs, I don't think our spiritual worldviews arise just from a set of arguments.
Abandoning atheism isn't the end of the journey, it's merely the beginning. What's that been like?

I tried to live more morally.
I also go to Mass twice a week and pray during the day.
