This may seem like a tough assignment to some of you but just think back over your religious indoctrination, try to remember the parts you liked the least or found the most objectionable and why. It may be difficult to come up with three, but I think most of have at least one big one which was our last straw in deciding to no longer affiliate with that (or any other) religion.
If each of us comes up with only one example from the two categories above, it should still prove to be an interesting group dialogue.
