How'd you get "drug-abusing" out of his stuff? The rest seems a fair enough assumption...
"I quit doing drugs, not at first, because I enjoyed them to much, but I stopped enjoying them and ended up giving them up and telling the people I was partying with why"
to have quit you have to have been taking them in the first place.

lived right above two Mormon missionaries (the Mormon church rented
out the one of the apartments below us for their missionaries), and
right down the street from a Kingdom Hall. I don’t believe simply
being exposed to a belief system would have changed my life the way
being exposed to God did, if that were true the American school
system should have kept me either an atheist of at least an agonistic.

How would you explain other people who claim to have almost exactly the same experiences as you except a different religion? Do you believe that all the Muslims who believe they have a similar relationship with God are being deceived or are lying?

religion or not, but it has beliefs and values vary. The American school
system is opposed to much in the realm of allowing students and
teachers from expressing their beliefs, it does take a stand on many
doctrines within religion while at the same time saying it isn't doing
that. Pushing God out of the school system attempts to keep it God
free which is promoting a belief system,
As far as experiences go, you'd have to give an example of someone
who had an experience almost 'exactly' like mine before I could talk
about it. The Muslims I know never claimed such a thing, but please
tell me about some.
