How I escaped the constricts of literalism and fundamentalism and discovered a new body of truth outside of Christianity. The thrill of reading Christian texts outside the canonized collection of the old and new testaments and how it inspired me to pursue my degree in Religious Studies.

This is an assignment from my RELIGION 101 class. We had to write about how a public figure is influenced by or influences through religion. I chose one of my favorite authors, Neil Gaiman.
