The transition from claiming religion to claiming faithlessness can be a difficult road. To one Iowa State graduate student, college has been a time of discovery. During his time on campus, he has noticed that many students, including himself, who have come from religious backgrounds start to question their religion and some even disown it. He said the realization of not believing in the faith students were raised in be scary for many. The thought of being rejected by family and friends can put a strain on the already busy college life. The graduate student knows this transition can be hard and has taken it upon himself to make it a little bit easier. His goal is to start a support group for the faithless and questioning students who haven’t told their families and friends about their faithlessness. He wants to create a group for closeted atheists. The graduate student has asked to keep his name anonymous for the protection of himself and other potential members of the group. “It can be hard because you don’t want to hurt family and you don’t want to hurt friends,” the student said. “You don’t want your relationships Blake Lanser/Iowa State Daily to change based on your [lack of belief]. Religion is something people can Some students struggle with telling base their entire lives on.” others their beliefs, especially when the question of one’s faith is brought The student said he comes from a strong Christian family and discovered up. Many students prefer to hide their beliefs because they fear judgment.
